Ya know its funny that i run across this Question. I'm actually a birthmother who just went through an adoption process with my son that was adopted. I was really praying on how the Lord could use me in his ministry to speak about the adoption process. My mother workes at a college and one of the professors asked her who i was and wanted me to come speak to her class about being a birth mom in a adoption process.

Answer 7

You need to do some major research prior to giving a speach on a topic such as this.  There are many facets to adoption. There is international and domestic adoption. There is adoption out of foster care. There are special needs adoptions. There are still many closed adoptions, however, thankfully, that is now changing, people are encouraged to be more open, meaning, keeping the birth parents involved in the child's life.  Adoption can be very complex. There is also an "adoption language".  I would go to the library and read, read read.  Possibly talk to a birth mother, an adoptive parent, and an adoptee as well to get insight from all three. Again, do your research, and please do not play in to what the "media" has reported. There are far more adoption success stories than unsuccessful ones, FAR MORE.

Answer 8

Adoption is a miracle. When I adopted my son, I learned that. I had given birth to my daughter six years earlier and I had spent several years crying over desperately wanting another child. When my son was born we named him a name that means "God heard my cry." As I held him, I knew that he was more of a miracle than most babies. Anyone who has ever had a baby or held a baby or been a baby knows that all babies are miracles. (believe it or not, I am not at all a religious person, but you've got me feeling this way right now!). But, when I adopted my son, I felt that there were 2 miracles happening. HIs birth was certainly a miracle -- the fact that he was healthy and strong and beautiful in every way. The second miracle was that there was a woman who felt that I, of all people, should be given the gift of raising her child. She wrote a letter to me saying how much she wanted my husband and me to have her baby -- how much she trusted us and knew she was doing the right thing by giving us this joy.

Answer 9

Many countries like Korea do not approve of their own people adopted Korean orphans. That is why so many are available to be adopted overseas. Muslim countries only allow children to be adopted by fellow Muslims. Cultural issues are important to understand.
