Definition

Adoption means "to take somebody else's child into one's family and become its legal parents" (Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary, 1995)

Adoption is "a decision to become the legal parents of a child genetically unrelated to them" (Melina, 2002).

Motivation to Adopt

There are various reasons why people choose to adopt.

  • Some couples build their families through adoption because of infertility.
  • Others would like to become adoptive parents because they love children and are able to provide a loving, forever home for them.
  • There are also couples who already have biological children and choose to adopt because they wish to have a bigger family, thereafter becoming a blended family with children through birth and adoption.
  • Others hear of the needs of waiting children and hope to make a difference in their lives by providing love and care.
