How do I put myself up for adoption, i am 13?
You are 13 and having been adopted as an older child, I can tell you it's not easy and it's not fun. From your comments, it's not going to fix your real problems, which are your viewpoint on life. You hate your mom. You hate Korean culture so I guess you're a rebellious Korean teen. You have a foul mouth as shown by your crude language above. You have a lousy attitude, which makes you unadoptable. Adoption is a legal contract for one set of adults to take over the responsibility of raising a child whose parents are either dead or have given up legal custody. As a child (under age 18) you are not able to make any kind of legal contract. So you cannot put yourself up for adoption. That's why someone recommended emancipation. If you aren't smart enough to do emancipation, then you aren't smart enough to put yourself up for adoption either, if it were legally allowed. You need to go into counseling and work on what problems you have with your mother. She has a lot of work to do raising you and you're making her life miserable with your pity-me, I hate you attitude. You need to grow up and do your part to make your life with mom better. I'm not surprised she got all po'd when you said you wanted to be adopted. You show no appreciation for all her hard work in trying to raise you all by herself. cw
Is it possible to put my 24 year old daughter up for adoption?
My 24 year old daughter has lived with my husband and I for 7 months and we have grown tired of her. She pays us 500 a month for rent which is nice but will not do anything else to help out. She is always talking back at me and she is lazy. Her room is a pigsty and I have asked her repeatedly to clean her room but she refuses. Last summer my husband and I decided to take a cruise to celebrate our 30 year wedding anniversary. When we came back we discovered semen on our blanket, it was revealed they had sex on our bed. The thing is she didn't even try to hide it so this led me to believe she dosen't care about making me angry. There are so many things she does that make me angry and I am sick of it. I am thinking of putting her up for adoption hope some family will pick up this devil child.
How to deal with putting my baby up for adoption?
if you honestly think you cannot raise this baby and give it the food, shelter, love and support it needs, then yes give it up for adoption. It does cost alot to raise children and is does take alot out of you. Are you willing to give up your blood to someone else? are you able to handle the depression after? have you considered finding someone to do an open adoption? then your child would have you to be there for it and it would have the life necessities as well. people willing to do an open adoption are hard to find but some people are just so happy to have a child they could be willing to change. As for your family, would you rather have them unhappy and eventually get over it, or would you rather see this baby having a hard life and unable to have the things it actually needs. Your family will eventually see you made the right decision and be able to support you either way. The best thing is that your baby will have a family instead of having it in an orphanage because you would find a family before the birth. If you didnt have a birth family set up then maybe you could change your mind and keep it. Granted its not like a kitten you just decide to make room for, but i think you will understand what i mean.. As a person going through the adoption process and with the unability to conceive, i am grateful for people who are unable to keep their babies for whatever reason so that i would have the chance to experience motherhood. I wish you the best of luck. Whatever decision you make, make it for yourself and dont worry about other peoples feelings or you will live life being unhappy and just trying to please others. As for your ex bf and getting married. i wouldnt recommend it, as you both deserve to find someone thats right for each of you, instead of being pressured into a relationship because of an accident. For the record, I also dont like when people have "accidents" when they know very well what they are putting themselves into, but having 2 sisters who had "accidents" and kept the babies, i am forever grateful for my nephews and nieces. Also, both of my sisters had children while on birth control regularly and using condoms, so apparently very common in my household for these precious accidents :) i know this is long, but please read. I hope you put alot of thought into your decision, whatever it may be, will be right.
Can my mom stop me giving my baby up for adoption?
First off, I want to say I think you're making a very mature and honorable decision - don't let anyone tell you differently. There's absolutely nothing wrong with wanting your child to have a better life with people who can provide more stability than you can. You're 15 years old, it's nothing to be ashamed of that you can't be the perfect mom right now. That kid has a chance at a loving mom, AND dad, who he or she will mean the world to, and it's great that you're thinking about it. Anyway, more to the point, no, your mom can't keep you from doing it. I believe that in some states, you are actually emancipated if you have a child. I do think, however, that there is a "family gets first pick" sort of rule - in that, she CAN choose to adopt the child. But that, I'm not sure about. (if you're absolutely against it.) (For reasons such as: She isn't well-off, and doesn't have the time, money, or dedication to really take care of a child as well as an adoptive couple could) If it does come to a point where she tries to adopt the child herself, I honestly think that once you see your baby you might be happy about that. You won't be the "legal guardian", thus, not responsible for coming up with resources for your child, or making hard, adult, parenting decisions, but you won't have to watch someone take off with your first baby forever, either. You may be able to get him/her back when you're maybe even... 18 or so. Or 25. When you're ready. If you don't want your mother to take the baby into adoption for personal reasons of your own, just make sure you have an intelligent, mature way to present your case in court. Something besides "She's my mom and she's being a jerk so I want to give the kid away to prove a point". If you truly think that an adoptive couple would be a better decision for your baby than you or your mother, back it up in court.
My mom wants to put me up for adoption, what to do?
I agree - talk to your Dad about it. Your mom is being emotionally abusive to threaten you with such a thing and she doesn't deserve to have a child at all if she treats you this way. Do your parents live together? If not, can you ask if you can live with your dad or another relative? I had the same kind of mother and I went to live with an aunt and uncle for a while.
