About Adopting A Child From Poland
Adopting a young child or a newborn infant born of a Polish mother can be fast and relatively simple.
It is common practice for unwed mothers in Poland to put their children up for adoption.
There are many young women aged anywhere from 12 on up who have become pregnant and want to have someone adopt their child. They advertise in the newspapers and on the Internet. They propose adoption in Polish forums.
The adoption is direct adoption, as compared to through a State Agency, whereby arrangements are made between the girl and the adopting family.
For the most part these women are interested in being compensated only for medical expenses and perhaps some assistance while they are pregnant.
Women advertising for an adopting family are generally more than three months pregnant. So the time from reaching agreement to having a newborn infant is six months or less.
All the arrangements are made privately between the mother and the adopting family. The process is in accordance with the Polish law that allows a mother to point the family that will adopt her baby.
Provided that an entry visa into the United States can be obtained, it is possible to bring the young girl back to the United States to care for her during her pregnancy and to oversee her diet and lifestyle during that time.
There are also some Polish women who are willing to contract as surrogate mothers. As part of the contracting process they agree to strict lifestyle controls. And they back the agreement by signing financial instruments that contain a significant penalty clause.
There are companies in Poland that act as an interface between the surrogate mothers and control the surrogate mothers during their pregnancy.
The cost to adopt a child through one of these two paths range from as little as paying for medications and medical expenses to 30,000 Euro and more. The range is wide and you can negotiate.
The demand for Polish newborns is high so one must open communications quickly. That is generally best done by having someone in Poland person reading the advertisements in newspapers and checking the internet every morning and immediately making contact to get information.
