Why Adoption
A Life-Affirming Decision
Life Choices believes adoption to be a godly and biblically-rooted concept. We believe that adoption is a life-affirming option for a woman experiencing an unintended pregnancy, as well as a desirable way for a couple to build their family. Because we realize that adoption is not the right decision for all of our clients, we do not encourage adoption over parenting. Instead, we trust that God will reveal his best plan to the biological parents to whom the child has been entrusted.
Life Choices believes that birth families choosing adoption are to be commended for their maturity and sacrificial love. In order to provide the compassionate care and support to all members of the child’s birth family, Life Choices has trained counselors available for the entire family unit who may also experience the loss upon releasing a child for adoption.
Life Choices believes that adopting a child should be financially accessible and that potential adoptive families should be treated with respect and compassion. At Life Choices, families will find that our professional staff is available to help lower the frustration levels that are often associated with the adoption process. We will strive to educate families about adoption and keep them as informed as possible throughout the process.
Life Choices believes adoption to be a permanent, covenant relationship between both the adoptive family and the child, as well as the adoptive family and the birth family. Along with Life Choices, the birth family and adoptive family work together, always keeping the child’s best interests in the forefront when making the arrangements for the placement and afterwards. Life Choices is committed to foster an atmosphere of mutual cooperation, respect, and love throughout the adoption process.
