You Get to Make the Decisions
One of the most empowering aspects of adoption is that you are in control of most parts of the process. You can:
- Select the family: Review profiles and choose the family that best fits your vision for your child’s life.
- Determine the amount of contact: You can decide whether or not you want to have an ongoing relationship with the family and child; and if so, how much communication you desire. This might include in-person visits, phone calls, or sharing photos and letters.
This flexibility ensures that your decision is tailored to your needs, desires, and goals.
