Adoption is bitter-sweet. It has highs and lows, but like anything challenging, it can be greatly rewarding.

Adoption has changed over the years, and it doesn’t quite look like it did before. By exploring this option and its different possibilities, you can understand if it’s the right choice for you.

What Are My Adoption Options?

There are many possibilities under the adoption umbrella, but you, as the birth parent, can choose which is suitable for you.

Options include:

  • Open Adoption
  • Semi-Open Adoption
  • Closed Adoption

What Is Open Adoption?

Open adoption takes place when all parties agree on open communication. Phone numbers, addresses, names, and other identifying information are shared.

In this adoption plan, you get to be a large part of the child’s life, sharing milestones and other exciting events.

What Is Semi-Open Adoption?

In a semi-open adoption plan, you can choose how much communication you participate in. All forms of communication will go through a third party who is an adoption professional.

You still have the opportunity to have a relationship with the child, but in a more private manner that allows you to decide how much you wish to be in contact.

What Is Closed Adoption?

Closed adoption is a plan that helps you protect your identity and remain anonymous. You will not be contacted, and all identifying records will be legally sealed. Your information will remain confidential and private.
