I Am Really Uncertain About Giving My Baby Up For Adoption. What Should I Do?

GET MORE INFORMATION about adoption from a kind, experienced, compassionate adoption professional. In our 90 years of combined, legal, experience arranging adoptions, we, at Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh”) have identified the two most common reasons why an expectant mother is uncertain about placing a baby up for adoption, or more correctly, making an adoption plan for their child. The first is the obvious reason – adoption is an IMPOSSIBLY DIFFICULT DECISION. The second is that they don’t have enough information, or worse, have INCORRECT information and are unable to make a WELL-INFORMED decision. Getting correct information without, feeling pressured, will NOT make adoption an easy decision, but it will enable you to decide based on fact. Here is an example, let’s say you needed to get a vaccination shot to prevent the COVID virus, but a well-meaning, BUT UNINFORMED, a close friend told you that after administering the shot, the nurse would cut off your arm. You would probably not get the shot. There may be valid reasons not to get a COVID vaccination, but fear that you will lose your arm is not one of them. Likewise, many birth mothers have very good reasons, based on fact, not to give up a baby for adoption. If you are uncertain about adoption, contact an adoption professional to get correct information about the process. We, at Kirsh & Kirsh, will provide that information.

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.

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 mom’s search results in Google.
