The process of Private infant adoption is very different from the process of International placements or the placement from foster care, but the emotional challenges remain present. In contrast to foster and international placement, in private infant adoption, the biological parents choose the adoptive family.

Nowadays couples prefer either semi open or open adoption over closed adoption with the adoptive family. In fact the adoptive agencies also encourage the birth mother to select the adoptive family she wants as adoptive parents for her baby. Different studies carried out by university of Washington also support the fact that open adoption proves to be much more prosperous than the closed adoption..

Generally, adoption is completed without many hassles and both the birth family and the adoptive family develop a real bonding and strong relationship. But if you are unsure

To how to go about it, or don’t know what kind of emotional challenges you will face, it is recommended that you opt for semi open adoption. Semi-open adoption is the one where the communication is more frequent and free between birth family and the adoptive parents. It gives you proper time and opportunity to develop a close bond and relationship. Doing so, you will leave the door open for more openness in nature.

This approach is wall calculated and is more rational as it also extends the family for the child .We would also like to mention that generally with the passing time the bond between both parties grows stronger.

In our agency, a quarter of total of our adoptive families and birth families have opened their adoption and have agreed to  exchange information about their last names and identifying information by the actual birth of the child. Mostly, the birth mother keeps the child’s name which is chosen by the adoptive family including their last name on the baby’s birth certificate. In most of the cases, the adoptive family with their relatives as well as the birth family and their relatives are present at the time of child’s birth and spend quality time, so that these wonderful memories can be  stored and relished by the child after he grows up.

We have observed that even if the adoption is not fully opened from child’s birth, both the parties get successful in growing their relation stronger within the initial 2 or 3 yrs of adoption. So it’s our educated guess that both parties appreciate the openness and sharing of their information for a healthy relationship.

As this decision involves human being who are not acquainted already with each other, chances of mismatches or human error in judgment is quite possible. There are also chances of ego clashes or resentment between both sides, which will damage the whole process of adoption severely. Therefore we strongly insist that both parties should think through and only after lot of deliberation must come to conclusion about the type of family or adoption they want for there lovely child. We hope this article will prove quite helpful in deciding in you course of action.
