Adopting a Foster Child

When adopting, parents should carefully consider whether they want to adopt a newborn or a foster child. Foster children are kids who have been removed from their biological parents because of abuse, neglect, or other concerns. In order to adopt a foster child, you must go through a foster agency.

If you or someone you know is considering adoption, it is important that you understand the legal issues involved. Contact the Denton divorce lawyers of Alexander & Associates for assistance with the adoption process. Call us today at 972-420-6560 to schedule a free initial consultation.

Foster Adoption

Deciding to adopt a child is not only a big decision, it is a long process. In order to ensure that the parents are good candidates for adoption, there is a rigorous screening process that they must complete. After being accepted as eligible parents, they can then choose whether or not they want to adopt a foster child.

The advantages to adopting a foster child are numerous. Not only will you be doing a good deed for a person who needs it, but you will have the opportunity to expose a previously neglected child to a warm and loving home. Additionally, adopting a foster child is typically much cheaper than adopting from a different agency, because foster agencies receive government funding.

The primary disadvantage to taking in a foster child is that they may have serious emotional or psychological problems. Depending on the circumstances surrounding their removal from their biological parents, the child may need therapy to fully heal the wounds of their past.
