Adoption by law means permanently placing a baby, toddler or older child with one or two parents other than the true birth parents. Adoption results in the severing of the parental rights and responsibilities of the true biological parents and placing those responsibilities & rights onto the adoptive parents. Numerous children, no matter their ages, are placed for adoption as a result of the biological parents' decision that they are unfortunately unable to take good basic care of their tike. Some biological parents involuntarily lose their parental rights and their children are placed into foster care because they were neglected or abused. The physical inability to biologically have a child is a routine reason for adopting. Wanting to adopt may also be accompanied by the lack of a mate or desiring not to use a surrogate or sperm donor. Unmarried folks and same sex partners frequently adopt for this reason. Methods of legally adopting a child can differ from one nation to another. Commonly when applying to adopt, all potential adoptive parents will be judged for appropriateness.

Adopting from outside one's country usually are more expensive and also ususally incur additional fees, such as the adoptive parents being required to travel to the source country. People from the U.S. represent the vast majority of international adoptive parents. Many larger countries have fairly well thought out laws, rules and procedures for out of country adopters to satisfy, while other nations do not. Adoption regulations for each country can differ widely.Requirements necessary to begin the process of adopting outside the country also can differ widely, depending upon the country of the adopters. In the U.S., as a general rule, usually the first stage in the process is to choose an facilitator or agency to work with. Each facilitator or agency works with a different group of nations, although other people put their focus on a lone country.
