What is The Difference Between “Placing a Baby For Adoption” And “Giving Up a Baby For Adoption”?

What is The Difference Between “Placing a Baby For Adoption” And “Giving Up a Baby For Adoption”?

There is an expression which goes: “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” The expression means that different people can look at the same thing — one sees something beautiful, and the other does not find it attractive, even though they are both looking at the same thing. Likewise, “Placing a baby for adoption” and “giving up a baby for adoption” mean exactly the same thing, but some say, “Giving up a baby for adoption” is not the correct way of expressing what a birth mother does when she decides that her baby will have a better chance for a bright future in the arms, hearts, and home of adoptive parents. Actually, many adoption professionals — national adoption agencies, local adoption agencies, and adoption attorneys, like Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. (“Kirsh & Kirsh” often misspelled as “Kirsch & Kirsch”) — prefer to use the expression, “making an adoption plan,” to describe what a birth mother does, because adoption is, in fact, a way of planning for a child’s future.

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.
