Adoption means legally permanently placing a baby or child with a parent (or parents) who weren't the biological parents. Adoption produces the severing of the parental responsibilities and rights of the actual birth parents and the placing of those responsibilities & rights onto the adopters. A great number of children are put up for for adoption due to the true birth parents' acknowlegement that they are unfortunately unable to take even adequate care of their baby or older child. Some percentage of biological parents forcibly are stripped of their parental rights and their children are placed in foster homes because they were abandoned, abused or neglected. The physical inability to reproduce and have a biological child is a common cause given to adopt. Wanting to adopt can also stem from the lack of a mate or partner or a lack of desire to use a sperm donor or surrogate. Single individuals and same sex partners regularly adopt for this reason. Procedures for legally adopting can differ from country to country. Normally when going to adopt, all prospective adopters will be appraised for appropriate suitability.

International adoptions are commonly more costly and also often incur more costs, like the adoptive parents being required to go to the source country. U.S. citizens represent the largest number of international adoptive parents. A number of large countries have moderately well instituted procedures and rules for out of country adopters to meet, while others do not. Adoption rules and regulations for each country deviate widely.Any conditions necessary to begin the process of adopting outside the country also will vary widely, depending on the country of the adopters. In the U.S., as an example, generally the first phase of the process is to choose an adoption facilitator or agency to deal with. Each adoption facilitator or agency works with different nations, although some only focus on a lone nation.
