Adoption is termed the legal act of permanently placing a baby or child with a parent (or parents) who were not the true birth parents. Adoption is considered the severing of the parental responsibilities and rights of the birth parents and placing those rights & responsibilities onto the adopters. A number of children are put up for for adoption because of the birth parents' acknowlegement that they are not able to adequately take care of their infant. A number of true birth parents forcibly are stripped of their parental rights & their children are placed into foster homes as they were abandoned, abused or neglected. A physical inability to reproduce biologically is a normal reason given for adopting. Wanting to adopt can also be accompanied by the lack of a mate or a preference not to use a surrogate or sperm donor. Unmarried individuals and same sex couples regularly adopt for this reason. Processes for becoming an adoptive parent can be different from one country to another. Generally when going to adopt, any prospective adoptive parents will be assessed for suitability and appropriateness.

International adoptions tend to be more costly and also typically incur other costs, like these: the adoptive parents necessarily being required to travel to the source nation. Citizens of the US represent the largest number of international adoptive parents. A few more developed nations have comparatively well established procedures and rules for foreign adopters to abide by, while some do not. Adoption policies & procedures for each nation can differ widely.The conditions necessary to start the process of international adoption also will differ widely, depending upon the country of the adopters. In the United States, as an example, usually the first point of the process is choosing an agency or facilitator to deal with. Every adoption facilitator or agency works with different nations, and some focus their energy only on a single nation.
