The answer for each man that wants to adopt or has considered adoption will be as unique as that man. (were not all the same) I joined the Air Force when I was 20 years old and have changed countries every 2 years since then. Not a whole lot of time to establish a relationship and get a marriage going. I am 28 now and in another 10 years the chances of having a child wont be great. In another 15-20 years why shouldn't I consider adopting a child. I have dreamed of being a father my whole life. Who are you to stop me from expressing and giving my love to a child that needs a home?
That would be your own if you adopt a foster child.
There is no explicit prohibition of such adoptions in Virginia, and it is unclear whether they would be permitted. A single gay person can adopt a child in Virginia.
No, you can only adopt someone to be your child. Your parents would have to adopt the person if you want them to become your sibling.
There is no explicit prohibition of joint adoption by same-sex couples. It is unclear whether a same-sex partner would be permitted to adopt the other's child, but single gay persons are permitted to adopt children.
Yes, but that would be very mean to adopt a child then disown them.
No, but it would be haram to put a child up for adoption.
They didn't want to adopt to a single currency because it would withdraw their own coins and paperbill's from circulating.
The father would need to legally give up his rights to the child or the court would have to take them away in order for the new husband to adopt the child.
Her dad finally decided to adopt the homeless puppy. His sister wanted to adopt an orphaned child. They weren't going to adopt the man's excuse.
There is no reason why you cannot adopt for whatever reason, whether single, divorced, or married. However, if the reason for adoption is access to benefits through your husband, then HE would need to adopt the child. This sounds unlikely.
My answer would be No, but a single person can adopt with no problem. The married couple is looked at as one, and both have to agree. * No, fortunately. There is no court in the land that would allow an adoption under such circumstances. The idea of a child being placed in a home where only one of the individuals was agreeable to the idea is counterproductive to the entire purpose of adoption.
That question can only be answered by the ageency that you would be dealing with in order to legally adopt a child.
