Of course there are no guarantees, but the process to adopt a child is a long and grueling one for the prospective adoptive parent (PAP). It takes many months (usually years) to proceed with an adoption, during which time the PAP is interviewed in their home several times (that is called a home study) by a licensed social worker who is trained in adoption issues. PAPs are required to take training classes to prepare them for adoption, and are subjected to fingerprinting, criminal background checks, and more. No one is saying that nothing bad ever happens, but everyone involved really does care that this becomes a great "forever family" for the child involved. And, PAPs get turned down ALL THE TIME when the agency does not think they should adopt. There are a lot of caring people trying to find the best possible situation for every kid.

Is it a parent right to file a child on taxes if the parent pays child support?

That issue is affected by state laws and court orders and separation agreements. You need to find the answer before claiming the child. In some states the working custodial parent has the right to claim the child as a dependent regardless if the non-custodial parent pays child support in recognition that the parent with custody generally spends more time and money on caring for the child.
