In many cases when adoption papers haven't been signed this is a good indication that either someone in the family was pregnant with you and for reasons of their own could't look after you, so your adoptive parents took over. Even a friend of one of your adoptive parents. Most adoptions that are legal are in the records of that adoption agency and the papers are for protection purposes so that child can never be taken away from the adoptive parents. Please sit down with your parents and tell them you are old enough for the truth. Assure them you still love them, but you feel a large void in your life and you need to know who your real parents are so you can get on with your life. I doubt they will refuse, but if they do, you can either try to find out the adoption agency, or if this is too hard hire a detective to find out who your parents were. Good luck Marcy

I think it would be wonderful to adopt because there are so many children out there that don't have parents, and you'd be giving them one.


Can a stepfather adopt his wife's child without consent of child's father if he has not paid child support?

Can a US citizen adopt a 16 year old niece who is in the US illegally?

To some extent, this question requires knowing the law of the state of adoption. Chances are, there will be problems getting the documentation and consents needed for adoption, unless one of the adopting parents is one of the biological parents. The more interesting issue is whether the adopted child can be an American citizen merely by adoption, and the answer to that appears to be no. Consult an experienced immigration lawyer, preferably with adoption experience.

Can a father re-adopt his sons if the adopted parents are ok with it?

No. When you leave a child for adoption the papers you sign mean that you are legally prevented from being that child's parent again. The final decision on who will adopt a child is the courts even if the adoptive parents say yes in this case. The adoption can be reverted so the child is up for adoption again if they feel they are not his parents but the biological parents can not adopt him.

Parents looking for children to adopt?

Any parent looking to adopt should check with their city/state about kids up for adoption. Contact a local adoption agency to find out who is up for adoption.

Adoption is usually used to establish a legally accepted parent-child or custodial relationship.

Consult an attorney familiar with adoption law in your area, petition the courts and see if it works.
