Adoptions

 

Adoptions in Texas are much easier to do than most people realize.  The hardest part of adopting can be finding a child.  This seems odd since there are so many children in foster homes across Texas.

 

There are two basic kinds of adoptions in Texas: adoptions of a step-child by a step-parent and adoptions of a non-related child.  Both require essentially the same paperwork, but the cost can be very different.

 

Adopting a step-child can happen in one of several scenarios.  If the biological parent (the one not residing with the child) is willing to "sign away his/her rights" then it can happen rather seamlessly.  If a biological parent has died, it can also be done this way.

 

Adopting a non-related child, on the other hand, requires more time and effort, and therefore costs much more.
