Adoption means legally permanently placing a baby or child with one or both parents who were not the biological parents. Adoption brings about the severing of the parental responsibilities and rights of the birth parents and assigning those rights and responsibilities onto the adopters. A large number of children, no matter their ages, are put up for for adoption as a result of the true birth parents' acknowlegement that they are unfortunately unable to take good care of their child of any age. Occasionally biological parents forcibly are stripped of their parental rights and their kids are placed into foster care as they were neglected or abused. A physical inability to reproduce and have a biological child is a common or frequent motive given to adopt. The wish to adopt may also be related to the lack of a marital partner or a decision not to use a surrogate or sperm donor. Single individuals and same sex partners often adopt for this reason. Procedures for adopting will vary from country to country or even between states. Generally when filling out an application to adopt, all prospective adoptive parents will be assessed for appropriateness.

Adopting internationally tend to be more costly and also frequently incur more costs, such as the adopters necessarily being required to travel to the source country. Americans represent the vast majority of international adopters. A few more developed countries have fairly well instituted laws, rules and procedures for out of country adopters to follow, while others do not. Adoption rules & regulations for each country can differ widely.Any requirements necessary to commence the process of adopting outside the country also will differ widely, depending upon the country of the adopters. In the United States, as a general example, usually the 1st stage in the process is to pick an facilitator or agency to work with. Every adoption facilitator or agency works with a different set of countries, and other people place their focus on a single country.
