Adoption is a legal term for permanently placing a baby or child with a parent or parents who were not the biological parents. Adoption results in the severing of the parental responsibilities & rights of the biological parents and assigning those rights & responsibilities onto the adopters. A large number of babies or children are placed for adoption because of the true biological parents' decision that they are unfortunately not able to take good care of their infant. Some percentage of true birth parents forcibly lose their parental rights and their child is placed in foster homes since they were neglected or abused. The physical incapability to reproduce biologically is a typically common reason for adopting. A choice to adopt might also be accompanied by the lack of a mate or a lack of desire to use a sperm donor or surrogate. Unmarried folks and same sex couples regularly adopt for this very reason. Procedures for adopting change from state to state or between countries. Typically when going to adopt, any prospective adopters will be judged for suitability.

Adopting internationally frequently are more expensive and regularly incur further costs, like the adopters necessarily being required to journey to the source country. Citizens of the U.S. represent the majority of international adopters. A few developed countries have comparatively well established rules and procedures for foreign adopters to cope with, while some do not. Adoption rules & regulations for each country differ widely.Any conditions needed to commence the process of adopting outside the country also vary widely, depending on the nation of the adoptive parents. In the US, as an example, generally the initial stage of the process is selecting an adoption agency or facilitator to work with. Each agency or facilitator works with a different group of countries, although many only focus on a lone nation.
