“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.

If you would like to explore adoption, 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 themselves on answering questions about adoption and explaining the process without pressure or judgment.

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 in Google.

No, you don’t. At times, a birth mother will contact a national adoption agency or local adoption agency because the adoption agency has an eye-catching website, or a friend used that agency, or because the agency has told the birth mother not to work with an adoption attorney, probably because of competitive jealousy. Sometimes, a birth mother will find that the adoption agency is too rigid in their requirements of her, that social workers or adoption agency counselors pry too much into her business, or the agency does not have adoptive parents whom the birth mother LOVES or with whom she could imagine placing her baby for adoption. The decision to put up a baby for adoption, or more correctly, make an adoption plan for a baby is too big a decision not to completely trust, or feel comfortable with, the adoption facilitator, whether an adoption attorney or adoption agency. We, at adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) are happy to meet with any woman thinking about adoption, without cost or obligation on her part, to give her the chance to see if she feels comfortable with us and our way of accommodating birth mother’s wishes. In other words, if a woman contacts or even meets with us, she never has to talk with us again.

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 themselves on answering questions about adoption and explaining the process without pressure or judgment. They cannot make adoption an easy choice, but they 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.

For a lot of women, a positive pregnancy test, while, perhaps, surprising, is not unexpected. In other words, they wanted to get pregnant. On the other hand, for some women, a positive pregnancy test is unexpected and not the news they were hoping for. If you did not plan to get pregnant and are not ready to commit the rest of your life to parenting a child, you might consider making an adoption plan for your unborn child. Do not think of it as giving away or giving up your baby. By arranging to have your baby adopted through experienced, caring adoption professionals like Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C., a local child-placing agency, or national adoption agency, you will be sure your child a bright future, with the opportunity to achieve her or his full potential in a secure and loving home.
