    “Starting in the early 1980’s, society’s view on adoption changed (motherhood)”. There would no longer be a need for secrecy, guilt, or shame for the child or the birth mother. Open adoptions allows the birth parents, adoptive parents and the child to have a relationship with each other. Adoption agencies help birth mothers create an adoption plan that includes their needs and desires and that of their child. Open adoption les the birth parents choose the adoptive family. There are various degrees of the “open” adoption process. For some it means that the birthparents and adoptive parents have some knowledge about each other. For others, the birthparents and adoptive parents form a relationship before the birth and are present at the birth of the child. The relationship that it formed between birthparents and adoptive parents is one of trust and respect. The American Association of Open Adoption Agencies lists in its statement of purpose that “Open adoption is the healthiest form of adoption, it is an adoption in which the birth family and the adopted child enjoy and ongoing, in person relationship” (openadotpion.org), this statement if a reflection of what the majority of open adoptions consist…

    In our reading this week, I discovered some reason why parents want to adopt or become foster parents. One of such reasons is that of infertility, this is one of the major reasons because it affects both men and women. Male for example may have problem with sperm production or the woman may have problem with fertility as the case may be, the couple can decide to go for adoption or to become a foster parent. I found that foster and adopted parent are not similar, foster parents is a means of providing temporary homes to children because they are yet to be re-united with their family, and if re-unification is not possible, such parent may be adopted.

    The concept of adoption was not legally recognized in the United States until the 1850’s, with the inception of the first adoption laws. While transfers of children to substitute parents or now known as “adoptive parents” had occurred informally since American colonial times, adoption laws legitimized the informal adoptive arrangements which previously existed. There are now two different forms of adopting a child: open or closed adoptions. Although there are two options for adoption, all adoptions should be considered closed until an adoptee is 21.…

    Mother and Parent

    Parenting is a big part of every ones lives; it makes up who you are as a person and in many cases projects who you will be in the future. Some adults have trouble manipulating their children and teaching them what is right from wrong, while others have a much easier time doing so. In my opinion there is no such thing as “the perfect parent”, both the mother and the father have their flaws, but what matters is that the parent is always there for personal support. To me a good parent is someone who is always there to support there children in both good and bad terms, and a responsible adult that can supply for their kids necessities, not necessarily all the luxuries that they want. Another key point to being a good parent is to be a good leader, all kids look up to their parents and most of the time follow their parents footsteps and part of being a good leader is being a hard worker. A parent that is supportive, responsible, and a leader and hard worker all make up to be a great parent in my opinion. In the stories Scar by Amy Tan, My Fathers Hands by Daisy Hernandez, and the poems Those Winter Sundays by Robert Hayden, No Longer a Teenager by Gerald Locklin all tie up to the universal theme of good parenting. Even though some characters in the story struggle to be the perfect parent they desire to be, some are successful in doing so while others just cannot do their duty.…
