The way you answer has huge consequences for the birthmother, you, and the child. Therefore, take time to think about it before you answer. Obviously, your friend – the birthmother – must trust you, and you may feel honored for her to have even asked you the question. In deciding what to do, here are a few things to consider:

  1. Most importantly, do you want a child (or another child if you already have a child or children)? If the answer is not 100% “Yes,” there is no need to read further. You have your answer. 
  2. Unless you are the father of the baby, it is NOT your responsibility to assume the life-long commitment of parenting the child, no matter how desperate your friend is. Do not feel obligated to help your friend.
  3. How will your parenting the child affect your relationship with your friend? What if she wants to make parenting decisions for you, especially if those decisions differ from yours? What if she starts treating you more like a babysitter than the parent of the child? What if, etc?
  4. What is in the child’s best interests? Should you suggest to your friend that she consider other options, such as having a family member of hers help, temporary foster care, or adoption?

Indiana’s law about abortion, Indiana Code § 16-34, provides a near total ban on abortions except in very limited circumstances and time frames. While some states may allow a woman to have an abortion up to a certain number of weeks into the pregnancy for any reason or just because she wants to abort the fetus, Indiana does not. Therefore, if you do not fit into one of the exceptions found in Indiana Code § 16-34, you will need to look into other options for your baby. For some women who find themselves with an untimely pregnancy, unexpected pregnancy, unplanned pregnancy, or unwanted pregnancy is adoption is an alternative to parenting the child.

The department of child services (or whatever it is called in your state) will not get involved simply because you give up your baby for adoption. Making an adoption plan for your child does not endanger your child causing child protective services to intervene. However, if you have already had problems with DCS and do not want DCS to take custody of your child and put your child in the “System,” your best option is to make arrangements for an adoptive placement before you give birth with adoption professionals like Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), whose 4 attorneys have over 100 years of combined legal experience helping birth mothers find loving, wonderful, carefully-screened homes for the precious soon-to-be-born babies and newborns. Another alternative is to contact a counselor at a local adoption agency or national adoption and ask the agency to provide counseling to you about your options — including foster care.

If we could remove our emotions from decision-making and instead base our decisions on objective facts, most of us would make wiser decisions. As time goes on, emotions fade, but facts remain. Thus, if you could take your emotions out of your decision-making, you will likely come to a better conclusion. Of course, the problem is how do you remove emotions from such a personal decision. Try this – Imagine that a close friend of yours came to you with the same issue. What advice would you give your friend? Pregnancies come to an end in one of three ways — the birth of the baby, abortion, or miscarriage. Since miscarriages are not controllable, the options for your friend include giving birth and abortion. Abortion ends the pregnancy but not the fact that your friend was pregnant. While many women have determined that it was their right to make the decision to abort the pregnancy and have learned to live with it, is hard to imagine that any woman who aborted a child was proud of her decision. You need to ask your friend to think about how she will feel about having had an abortion in the years to come, as the abortion will always be a part of her personal story, even if nobody else knows she had an abortion. 

Giving birth does not necessarily mean parenting the child. Parenting is a lifetime, monumental commitment – not an 18-year obligation. Parents never stop parenting their children. If your friend is not ready to assume that commitment, she may want to consider giving the baby up for adoption or more correctly, making an adoption plan for the child.

The Indiana Supreme Court made three very important rulings in this case.

  • The Indiana Supreme Court held that the Indiana Constitution does not include a constitutional right of a woman to have an abortion. 
  • The court held that the Indiana General Assembly has the power to limit abortions so long as the law allows a woman to have an abortion to protect her life or health. 
  • The state has a legitimate interest in protecting prenatal life. However, the court did not preclude other challenges to the 2022 abortion law, but held that the statute, as whole, is not unconstitutional. 

Another case that challenges Indiana’s 2022 abortion law is a claim that the 2022 abortion law violates a woman’s freedom of religion. To say it differently, if a woman has a good faith belief that her religion allows abortion, the plaintiffs, in that case, argue that Indiana’s abortion law violates her right to have an abortion. The decision, in that case, will not be known for a while, but given the recognition by the Indiana Supreme Court that the Indiana legislature has the power to protect unborn children, it will be interesting to see how the court will balance a woman’s religious freedom (if it agrees that such freedoms permit abortions) with the state’s interest in protecting an unborn child. 

In spite of one’s feelings about abortion, a woman with an untimely pregnancy or unplanned pregnancy should, at least, look into adoption as an alternative to aborting or parenting the child.

At Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), we file most of the adoptions we arrange in Indiana, even if the birth mother lives in states like Illinois, Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, Michigan, or any state other than Indiana. Under Indiana law, a birth mother may receive living expenses – but not a financial incentive — if she puts her baby up for adoption, or more correctly, makes an adoption plan for her baby.  In short, not in any state can adoptive parents induce a mother to proceed with an adoption by paying her money for the baby. That would constitute the crime of “baby-selling.” Even if payment of money for a child was not illegal, few women could come to peace with themselves if they “sold” their babies. 

However, law makers in many states recognize that if a pregnant woman carries a baby to the end of her pregnancy, she will likely need financial assistance to support herself during that time. Indiana Law legally allows a woman to receive up to $4,000 in living expenses, throughout pregnancy and after delivery. At Kirsh & Kirsh, we find that most women need the full amount and have them sign an affidavit of financial disclosure which we file with the court, disclosing the amount of living expenses she received or expects to receive.

A birth mother has the sole right to decide how much, if any, time she spends with her baby in the hospital if she gives the baby up for adoption or, more correctly, makes an adoption plan for the baby. Neither under Indiana law nor the law of any other state can a woman sign a binding consent to adoption BEFORE she gives birth. Before signing a consent to adoption, the birth mother has total CONTROL, in the hospital, over how much time, if any, she chooses to spend with her baby. If an adoption agency or adoption attorney tells her otherwise, she needs to look for another adoption attorney or adoption agency to help her facilitate her adoption plan. We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) respect a woman’s right to spend all of the time she wants with her baby in the hospital BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER she signs her consent to adoption. The adoptive parents represented by Kirsh & Kirsh understand that all women have different ways of saying goodbye to their babies. While nothing they do will make the goodbye EASY, they know that making her feel guilty about wanting to spend time with her baby or rushing a birth mother will make the process MORE DIFFICULT.

“Open adoption” does not have a set, universally understood definition. It is best to think of openness in in an adoption as a spectrum – at one end of the spectrum, adoptions are completely closed or confidential, meaning the exchange of no information. Neither the adoptive parents nor birth parents know ANYTHING AT ALL about the other. At the other end of the spectrum is a completely open arrangement in which the parties plan to raise the adoptee together, also called “Cooperative Parenting,” and know EVERYTHING about each other. In our vast experience of having arranged adoptions for nearly 40 years, we at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) have not seen ANY adoptions at either end of the spectrum. All adoptions which we have facilitated fall somewhere between the ends of the spectrum. Because we do NOT follow the “one size fits all” approach, we tailor each adoption to the desires and needs of the parties involved in that adoption. However, almost all the adoptions which we facilitate include the exchange of information sufficient to enable the birth mother and birth father, if he is involved, to know that she or they have selected the BEST POSSIBLE family to raise their baby and for the adoptive parents not only to have medical information which will help them care for the child but whatever other background information the birth parents want to share to satisfy the child’s curiosity about his or her roots when as the child gets older and hears their adoption story.

NO! Adoption is not an alternative to abortion: it is an alternative to parenting when a birth mother is not ready to take on the lifetime commitment of raising a child. Some women get very upset at the notion that a woman who would consider abortion would naturally choose adoption. However, perhaps those women should, at least, give adoption a second thought. Certainly, if a woman considers having an abortion, she must question her desire or ability, or both, to parent the child. Adoption is an alternative to personally parenting a child. Adoption allows the child the opportunity to live life and reach her or his full potential, the birth parents to know that their child is safe and secure, and the adoptive parents to realize their dreams of parenthood. OBVIOUSLY, adoption is not for everyone facing an untimely or unplanned pregnancy, but NO ONE should suggest that it is NOT for ANYONE.

We can help you in finding an AMAZING, WONDERFUL adoptive home for your precious baby, whether you are in Indiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, or Michigan.

There is always a family waiting to love your child. We have lots of family options from which you can choose, all of whom are wonderful, carefully screened, loving families FROM INDIANA AND ALL OVER THE COUNTRY (married, single, Lesbian, and Gay) who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes and are happy to assist with living expenses to the fullest extent allowed by law. You make all the choices regarding which family adopts your baby & extent of contact you want after the child’s birth.

POSITIVE ADOPTION LANGUAGE DISCLAIMER:  Please understand that these blog posts are written in a way to use language that people use when searching for help with their adoption plans.  Unfortunately, while all of us understand what positive adoption language means, most expectant moms that come to us at first do not understand what that means. The most common search term on the Internet for expectant moms is “how do I give up my baby for adoption.”  If we do not include those words in our blog posts, and instead put “how do I create an adoption plan for my baby,” then our website will not show up in most expectant moms’ search results on Google.
