public adoption

Public adoption is the legal process through which a child becomes the official, permanent child of someone who is not their biological parent, typically facilitated and overseen by government or authorized agencies. This process involves a thorough assessment of the prospective parent's ability to care for the child, ensuring the child's best interests are prioritized. Once completed, the adoptive parent gains legal rights and responsibilities, just like biological parents, providing stability and a permanent family relationship for the child. Public adoption often involves children in foster care or orphanages and aims to find suitable, caring homes for them.
