If I Give My Baby Up For Adoption, Will My Child Be Okay?
In our 40 years of experience helping birth parents find adoptive homes for their newborn babies, we, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh” but often misspelled as “Kirsch & Kirsch”), KNOW that women who put up their babies for adoption, LOVE their babies with all their hearts and pursue adoption as their way of giving their children the best chance of having a happy, productive life in a safe and secure home. Unfortunately, THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES IN LIFE, but here are a few examples of people who were given up for adoption:
- Steve Jobs – co-founder of Apple computers and technology.
- Babe Ruth – one of the best baseball players of all time (He also became an adoptive parent.)
- Dave Thomas – founder of the Wendy’s restaurant chain.
- Edgar Allan Poe – the famous poet and short story writer.
- Faith Hill – famous country singer and actress.
If you Google “people who have been adopted,” you will find many more examples. Of course, not all children placed for adoption accomplish great things and some have tragic lives – just as people raised by their birth parents. If you find yourself with an unwanted pregnancy, untimely pregnancy, or unplanned pregnancy, ask yourself if you are prepared to make a lifetime commitment of raising your child. If not, look at other options, including adoption.
If you would like more information about adoption and available living expenses during and after your pregnancy, we, at Adoption Attorneys Kirsh & Kirsh — or the “Kirsh Boys,” as the adoption attorneys at Kirsh & Kirsh are sometimes called – would be happy to help. 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 mom’s search results in Google.
