Types of adoption
First, you need to understand the different types.placement of a child in a new family. AdoptionThis is the most preferable type of placement of a child in a new family - he is not only accepted, but also legally equal in rights with biological children. In this case, the adopted child can be given his last name, change his name and date of birth. But the requirements for future parents are very strict - in terms of financial status, housing and living conditions, health. Ethnic origin, religion, native language are taken into account. Adoption occurs only through the court. Foster familyWith this type of placement, a child is accepted into a family until the age of 18, and his adoptive parents are paid a monthly allowance. The requirements for candidates are less strict than for adoption. At the same time, there are no alimony or inheritance relations. And the child retains the right to living space, which is provided to orphans by the state, and a queue for it. MentoringThe so-called "weekend family" without permanent residence of the child in the family. The family takes him on weekends, holidays or vacations. This helps children receive moral support, see how a family functions and gain communication and household skills. A good way to take a closer look at the child you want to adopt. As a rule, it is much easier to formalize mentoring - no mandatory medical examination is required. However, this form is not established by law. All requirements are accepted by the director of the children's institution.
