Adoption is the legal act of permanently placing a child of any age with one or both parents other than the actual biological parents. Adoption means the severing of the parental responsibilities and rights of the true birth parents and assigning those responsibilities & rights onto the adopters. A great number of kids are placed for adoption due to the biological parents' acknowlegement that they are unfortunately not able to adequately care for their little one. Other actual birth parents forcibly lose their parental rights so that their kids are placed in foster homes since they were abused or abandoned. The physical incapability to reproduce and have a biological child is a frequent reason given to adopt. The wish to adopt may also be due to the lack of a partner of the opposite sex or the desire not to use a sperm donor or surrogate. Single people and same sex partners frequently adopt because of this reason. Methods of legally adopting a child can vary from country to country. Commonly when filling out an application to adopt, all prospective adoptive parents will be appraised for appropriateness.
