Adoption
This is a serious thread and i don't want any smart remarks from the peanut gallery only sincere information from those who have beent thru this. If you want to PM that would be even better.
I know that there was thread regarding who has been adopted. However, i am wanting to know more about the procedure and all the fees that go along with it from a persons standpoint of those of you who has been thru it and not from a generic websites that give you the generic information that you see on every other site you go too.
My question is this : say you know someone who is having a baby and wants to give the baby up for adoption and you both agree to you being the one to adopt the baby....do you have to go thru agencies to officially adopt? or can you kepp it private and you and the mom and the courts? are you still subjected to homestudies and etc.... and if you go this route fee wise how much are you looking at?
As a paralegal i have in "in" with doing the documents myself instead of paying someone else to do it. However, i need some imput of ones who have been thru it or know more about the prcoess.
