Can you give up your child, at any age, for adoption for any given reason (e.g. you just don't want him/her anymore)?
You can, and it would help if you had another family for the child to go to. Many states have baby-safe laws, where mothers can leave their babies at hospitals, fire stations, and police stations.As for older children:There are stories of single mothers who, dying of cancer, have had their children adopted by their friends—they pop up from time to time on Facebook or on the evening news.I listened to a story of a widower, Will Ream, who ended up having his children adopted:And so Will came to a hard, awful conclusion. He needed to let them move on, without the question of coming home always hanging over their heads. And so after they've been living with their new families for two years, Will waived his parental rights. He let the families adopt his kids.Transcript | This American Life (use Ctrl-F to find his part of the transcript)I read another account, years ago, of a mother who could not find herself loving her son, and surrendered him to the state. (This was in a newspaper series about child abuse.) Nothing wrong with the kid, but she knew that she didn’t want him, didn’t want to go through counseling. The kid was a couple of years old and was swiftly adopted as she had terminated her parental rights. (Many children in foster care are unadoptable as their parents have not willingly terminated their rights, nor have the courts moved to do so.)Other times, the children were surrendered to the state due to inability to the parent physically/fiscally care for the child. There was a short while in one of the states, where parents were exploiting a “baby drop” law that didn’t have an age limit on it, and were leaving children at fire stations, including incorrigible teens and children on the autism spectrum. I don’t know how those stories turned out.Older teens, ages 16 and 17, may be emancipated, where they become legally responsible for themselves, instead going through the process of going through being a foster/adopted child.This, of course, is not legal advice, just what I have observed.
Is it haram to give your child up for adoption?
It's not haram, but I'm pretty sure it's haram to sleep with somebody without being married to them. I'm not trying to be cruel, but you may want to make sure that you are ready to give up a child. Even though you think it will be better for him/her it might be a good idea to really make sure you will be fine without them.
Ramadan: What does Islam say about abortion?
abortion is haram in Islam. BUT there are two conditions: - if the birth will effect the mother's health. if the birth will have a lethal effect on the mother. - if the baby is not normal. if, due to radiation or something of the sort, the baby is losing its limbs, heart.... no possiblity the baby will live. in the above two cases abortion is permissible. (ONLY those two cases) @shadow: in the case of rape. abortion is still haram. the mother would have to have the baby but she can give him/her up to adoption. -------------------- edit @ shadow. my stand is exactly the same. there are only 2 conditions. i am 100% sure of what i am saying. i asked a woman who has a degree in shariaa (Islam) she is the same status as an imam (except woman). about before three months.... i thought that was true, turns out it not. its haram. check your sources shadow.
Is there an age requirement for putting a child up for adoption?
Absolutely not. Any one at any age can put up someone for adoption. And,any one at any age can be adopted. I have a family member who adopted a girl he and his wife fostered when she was 20.I also know a girl from the neighborhood i grew up in who was 14 when she had her first born. Legally she could not hold custody (her mother had to be tje legal guardian) but she could have put the child up for adoption.
