Adoption is legally defined as permanently placing a infant or child with a parent or parents other than the biological parents. Adoption leads to the severing of the parental responsibilities and rights of the true biological parents and ascribing those responsibilities and rights onto the adopters. A great number of babies or children are put up for for adoption because of the true birth parents' acknowlegement that they are unfortunately not able to take even adequate care of their baby or older child. Some percentage of actual birth parents forcibly lose their parental rights and their child is placed in foster homes as they were abused, abandoned or neglected. A physical incapability to reproduce biologically is a frequent or common basis given to adopt. The desire to adopt can also be accompanied by the lack of a marital partner or desiring not to use a surrogate or sperm donor. Unmarried individuals and same sex partners very often adopt because of this reason. Processes for adopting can vary from between states or countries. Normally when applying to adopt, any potential adoptive parents will be considered for suitability and appropriateness.

Adopting from outside one's country tend to be more pricey and regularly incur additional costs, including the adoptive parents having to travel to the source nation. People from the U.S. represent most of the international adopters. Some more developed nations have reasonably well established procedures and rules for foreign adopters to comply with, while some do not. Adoption regulations for each nation deviate widely.The requirements necessary to begin the process of adopting internationally also can vary widely, depending on the country of the adopters. In the U.S., as a general example, usually the first rung in the process is finding an adoption facilitator or agency to deal with. Every agency or facilitator works with a different group of nations, and just a few place their focus on a specific nation.
