IF I PUT UP MY BABY FOR ADOPTION, CAN I CHOOSE THE ADOPTIVE PARENTS?

Most national adoption agencies and local adoption agencies give birth mothers and expectant mothers profiles of families from which they can choose. We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) have always given birth parents control over selecting adoptive parents, among our fully investigated and carefully screened pool of hopeful, prospective adoptive parents. We have found that there is always a family waiting to love your child. Because of the size and scope of the Kirsh & Kirsh Adoption Program, we can offer birth parents a wide variety of waiting families from which to choose. On the other hand, if a birth parent would rather not make the choice, we will make the match. Some birth mothers have very specific criteria for the family they would want to adopt their children but do not want to make the decision. At Kirsh & Kirsh, we give the birth mother and father, if the mother chooses to involve him, control over all aspects of the adoption to the extent the law allows it. We handle all adoptions in accordance with all applicable laws, which we have found gives birth parents additional peace of mind that their child will go to a loving, secure, safe, and happy home.

We, at Kirsh & Kirsh — or the “Kirsh Boys,” as the adoption attorneys at Kirsh & Kirsh are sometimes called – Steve, and his brothers, Joel and Rob, and his son, Grant, pride ourselves on answering questions about adoption and explaining the process without pressure or judgment.

Our contact information is below. We will answer your questions and provide you with the information you seek, without cost or obligation on your part. In other words, talking to us is FREE and does NOT mean you ever have to talk or text with us, again. The Kirsh Boys have 90 YEARS OF COMBINED EXPERIENCE practicing adoption law. We can help you in finding an AMAZING, WONDERFUL, adoptive home for your precious baby, whether you live in New Castle or Indianapolis, Bloomington or Richmond, Evansville or New Albany, South Bend or Goshen, Decatur or Ft. Wayne, or any Indiana county or city in between, or ANYWHERE in Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, or Michigan.

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 of which family adopts your baby and the extent of contact you want after the child’s birth.

WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS IF I ALREADY HAVE KIDS AND CANNOT PROVIDE FOR ANOTHER ONE?

You must first determine if your inability to provide for another child will last for the foreseeable future or only for a short time? If you only need a few days or a couple of weeks to be in a position to parent your child, then a family member or close friend may be able to help you out. Additionally, you might find a local adoption agency that would assume temporary foster care of your child.

On the other hand, if you expect your situation to continue indefinitely, you need to explore a more permanent option for your soon-to-be-born or newborn baby. While a friend or family member may be willing to take care of your child for a long period of time, it is unlikely that they will readily relinquish custody of the child back to you after having acted as your child’s parent for several months or years. Frankly, you also need to consider the impact on your child if you were to remove your child from the only home the child has known for any length of time.

An option that would give your child a secure, permanent home, with loving, devoted parents, and the opportunity to realize her or his full potential while giving you the ability to focus your attention on the children you already have is to put the baby up for adoption, or more correctly, to make an adoption plan for your precious child by contacting adoption professionals like Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), a local adoption agency, or national adoption agency.

We, at Kirsh & Kirsh — or the “Kirsh Boys,” as the adoption attorneys at Kirsh & Kirsh are sometimes called – Steve, and his brothers, Joel and Rob, and his son, Grant, pride ourselves on answering questions about adoption and explaining the process without pressure or judgment. We cannot make adoption an easy choice, but we can make it less scary by removing some of the unknowns. Ultimately, a birth parent will have to decide if adoption is in their own best interests and the best interests of their child. We, at Kirsh & Kirsh, will not and cannot make that decision for anyone, but we can provide information and answers to questions – that way, you can make a well-informed decision.

DOES KIRSH & KIRSH, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) HANDLE OPEN ADOPTIONS?

YES! We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, help create adoption plans which accommodate the wishes of both the birth parents and prospective adoptive parents. We find that many birth mothers would like to receive written and photographic updates from the adoptive parents letting them know how their children are getting along and simply to satisfy their curiosity about what the children look like In fact, even for those birth parents who do not request updates, Kirsh & Kirsh encourages the adoptive parent to create the updates and put them in safe-keeping in case the birth mother or father later change their minds about receiving the updates. Every birth parent finds peace in their own way. In our experience, seeing photos and receiving written updates about their children reaffirms for the birth parent that they made the right decision in placing the baby up for adoption, or more correctly, making an adoption plan for the baby. Of course, some birth mothers struggle more than others with their decision. Therefore, we, at Kirsh & Kirsh, encourage all expectant mothers and birth mothers to speak with a counselor to help them focus on their reasons and have the tools to deal with their emotions. We will arrange and pay for counseling both before and after the baby is born.

I DO NOT WANT TO ABORT THE BABY, BUT I AM PREGNANT AND NOT READY FOR A BABY. WHAT CAN I DO?

You are not alone. Millions of birth parents face this dilemma every year. You could ask a friend or family to help you raise the child or raise the child for you. You might find an adoption agency to take short-term foster care of the child. You could give birth and invoke the Safe Haven Law by leaving the baby at a police or fire station or hospital if the state in which you live has a Safe Haven Law. Alternatively, you could put up the baby for adoption, or more correctly, make an adoption plan for the child. Choosing to pursue Safe Haven protects the baby but puts it into the foster care system, whereas adoption does not.

If you find yourself with an unplanned pregnancy or untimely pregnancy (few women would use the phrase “unwanted pregnancy”), you should carefully research and consider your options. None of the ones listed nor any others you might find “undo” the pregnancy. Abortion will terminate the pregnancy but not erase it. All are very personal decisions. Only you can decide what suits your needs, wants, and desires. More significantly, you, more than anyone else, except your child, will “live” with the consequences of your decision.

I DON’T HAVE INSURANCE OR MEDICAID AND PLAN TO PUT UP MY BABY FOR ADOPTION. WILL I HAVE TO PAY MY OWN MEDICAL BILLS?

NO WORRIES!  We, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), do not make having Medicaid or Insurance a requirement for us to help an expectant mother or birth mother give up her baby for adoption, or more correctly, make an adoption plan for her baby. We work with a company that will assist you with the Medicaid paperwork, without cost to you. In that way, if you decide to parent, rather than proceed with an adoption, you will have Medicaid to help with your medical expenses. If you place your baby for adoption in our adoption program but do not qualify for Medicaid, the family who adopts your baby will cover your pregnancy-related, medical expenses.

I AM PREGNANT WITH AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN BABY AND HAVE HEARD THAT THERE ARE NOT MANY FAMILIES WANTING TO ADOPT BABIES LIKE MINE. IS THAT TRUE?

While it is true that nationally fewer families express interest in adopting Black babies than White babies, we at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C., have LOTS of carefully screened, loving, prospective adoptive parents who cannot wait to welcome an African-American baby into their hearts and homes. While some national adoption agencies and local adoption agencies may not have many waiting families, we have successfully recruited families from Indiana and all over the country, giving expectant mothers and birth mothers, who contact us, several, prospective adoptive families from whom to choose.

AM I OLD ENOUGH TO ADOPT A NEWBORN?

This morning, we, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) received inquiries through our website,www.LovingAdoptions.com, from 19- and 18-year-olds, looking into adopting newborns and wanted to know if they were old enough to adopt. Indiana adoption statutes do not state for adoptive parents. However, as adoption attorneys, we can decide whom we wish to represent as prospective adoptive parents, and we do not have to accept as clients everyone who contacts us. We hold to the belief that we would not represent prospective adoptive parents, whom we would not feel comfortable adopting our own children. Additionally, our 4 adoption attorneys know, from our 90 years of combined experience practicing adoption law in Indiana, that women thinking about putting up their babies for adoption, or more correctly making an adoption plan for their children, will not choose a couple or individual to adopt, if the birth mother or expectant mother is not certain of the couple’s or individual’s ability to provide their babies with a stable, loving home, and bright future. Being a great parent takes many attributes, including love, time, commitment, knowledge, skill, patience, understanding, and life experiences. LOVE ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH. If it were, a pregnant woman would never give up their babies for adoption. We KNOW that expectant mothers and birth mothers have all the LOVE IN THE WORLD for their babies. In fact, love for their babies is the primary factor for a birth parent to proceed with adoption because they have determined that they lack the other attributes to successfully parent their soon-to-be-born or already-born babies. In fact, most of the birth mothers whom we assist in finding adoptive homes for the babies are older than late teens themselves. National adoption agencies, local adoption agencies, and other adoption attorneys may have other adoption requirements, but at Kirsh & Kirsh, we want our adoptive parent clients to have completed their educations, gotten themselves established in their careers, and if a married couple, have marital stability.

Our contact information is below.  We will answer your questions and provide you the information you seek, without cost or obligation on your part. In other words, talking to us is FREE and does NOT mean you ever have to talk or text with us, again. Our adoption attorneys have 90 YEARS OF COMBINED EXPERIENCE practicing adoption law. We can help you find an AMAZING, WONDERFUL, adoptive home for your precious baby, whether you live in Indianapolis or Greenwood, Columbus or Mount Vernon, Evansville or Vincennes, or Huntington or Ft.

I Have An Unplanned Pregnancy And Am Thinking About Putting My Baby Up For Adoption. What Will Happen When I Contact Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”)?

Firstly, and most importantly, contacting us at Kirsh & Kirsh does not cost you anything. Birth mothers and expectant mothers never pay fees to Kirsh & Kirsh. Next, and just as importantly, contacting the adoption law firm of Kirsh & Kirsh does not mean you have to proceed with an adoption. We understand that adoption can be confusing and there is lots of wrong information out there about adoption. A birth mother thinking placing her baby for adoption, or, more correctly, making an adoption plan for her newborn or soon-to-be-born baby, wants information – CORRECT information. Therefore, when you contact us, we will answer your questions and tell you how we can assist if you decide to pursue adoption. Again, even if you tell us you want our help, you will not be obligated to place your baby for adoption. Under the laws of Indiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Kentucky, you cannot give your consent to an adoption until after you give birth. We will NEVER pressure you to sign a consent to adoption.

At Kirsh & Kirsh, we try to make it easy to look into adoption, whether because of nice team members, our quick response times, and our willingness to tailor each adoption to the wants and needs of our clients, the hopeful adoptive parents, and the loving, courageous birth parents who contact us, looking for assistance in finding the perfect adoptive home for their precious newborn, soon-to-be-born, or young toddler.

We have assisted many pregnant women, in Indiana and around the country, over the last 35+ years find loving, happy, wonderful homes for their babies. We give expectant mothers and birth mothers as much or as little involvement in the family selection process as they would like.

We have lots of wonderful, carefully screened, loving families (married, single, Lesbian, and Gay) who cannot wait to welcome a baby into their hearts and homes and happy to assist with living expenses to the full extent allowed by law.

If I Have An Unplanned Pregnancy, Why Should I Contact Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh? I heard They Represent Prospective Adoptive Parents Looking To Adopt

Yes. Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), act as the attorneys for prospective adoptive parents hoping to adopt newborns. Additionally, as an ethical matter, Kirsh & Kirsh cannot represent adoptive parents and the birth mother in the same adoption. However, aside from not giving an expectant mother or birth mother “legal advice,” Kirsh & Kirsh will take care of all aspects of the adoption. While Kirsh & Kirsh has one of, if not, the largest adoption programs in the Midwest – Indiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Kentucky — the firm is very much a family business.  The 4 Kirsh & Kirsh attorneys are all Kirshes, 2 other members of our staff are Kirshes, and the other members of our team are like family — one of whom has been with Kirsh & Kirsh for 25 years! We make ourselves available 24/7/365 to answer questions and assist with arrangements for the adoption. Our clients will pay for a pregnant woman, considering giving up her newborn baby for adoption or, more correctly, making an adoption plan for her unborn baby, to speak with a counselor and her own attorney.

We, at Kirsh & Kirsh, have assisted numerous pregnant women, in Indiana and around the country, over the last 35+ years find loving, happy, wonderful homes for their babies. We give expectant mothers and birth mothers as much or as little involvement in the family selection process as they would like.

What Options Do I have for an Unplanned Pregnancy?

When most couples learn that they are pregnant, they are overjoyed. If that is not how you felt when you learned you were pregnant or you have an unplanned pregnancy, an untimely pregnancy, or for some, an unwanted pregnancy, you have options besides parenting the child, including,

  1. Giving the baby to a family member to raise,
  2. Safe Haven Abandonment of the child,
  3. Foster care
  4. Abortion, and
  5. Adoption

At Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”), we are most familiar with the option of adoption and since adoption receives little attention as an option for an untimely pregnancy or unplanned pregnancy, this blog entry will provide an overview of adoption.

Adoption creates a permanent, legal relationship between a child and the adoptive parent(s). Foster care, guardianship, or childcare, and the like may continue for a long time but do not make the caregivers the legal parents of the child. Additionally, adoption ends the legal relationship between the child and birth parents.

By giving a baby up for adoption, or more correctly, making an adoption plan for a baby or placing a baby for adoption, through many adoption agencies and Kirsh & Kirsh, expectant mothers have the option of selecting the adoptive parents for their babies from profiles of carefully screened, thoroughly investigated prospective adoptive parents. Kirsh & Kirsh has the VERY HIGH STANDARDS for the prospective adoptive parents they will accept as clients for adoptive placements.

Adoption gives the baby the gift of a loving, secured, prepared home, the new family the gift of a baby, and the birth mother or birth parents the gift of peace of mind that their precious child will receive a loving home and lifetime of opportunities.

We, at Kirsh & Kirsh, have assisted numerous pregnant women, in Indiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, and around the country, over the last 35+ years find loving, happy, wonderful homes for their babies. We give expectant mothers and birth mothers as much or as little involvement in the family selection process as they would like.
