Finding An Adoptive Family in a Texas Non-Faith-Based Adoption

Like many aspects of life, adoption is a process that is diverse and unique to each individual who experiences it. Often, prospective adopters and adoptees will bring the many elements of their lives that inspire them and that they resonate with into their adoption. This can range from deciding which relatives to incorporate in the decisions to the culture they want to surround the child. Amongst these many influences is the factor of religion and belief. 

For some, religion has been a lifelong subscription, filled with dedication and guidance. For others, however, religion may not be an instrumental part of their lives.

Why Would You Want Your Child To Be Placed in a Non-Religious Home?

As mentioned, religion, or a lack thereof, is a key aspect of many individual’s motives and desires. Therefore are many reasons why a birth family may want to choose a non-faith-based adoption for their child. Some of the most common reasons include:

The birth family themselves is not affiliated with a religion and therefore do not want their child to be – As discussed above, numerous families wish for their child to be placed in a non-faith-based adoption solely because they themselves have no central faith system that they are a part of. There may be a sense of still wanting the child to still be as connected to your daily life and ideals as possible while not being under your care. It might feel odd to receive photos or letters of your child if the adoption is open, where they are celebrating holidays, or practicing traditions that your family does not align with. Also, for certain religions which begin their ceremonies or teachings at birth, the child may not meet the necessary requirements to enter the faith after leaving the birth parents’ care. 

The birth family would prefer that their child focuses on other enterprises such as social and scientific values – As opposed to religious beliefs, some families and individuals focus on other value systems such as science and social roles. While these values can coincide and coexist with religion, for these families, it is a question of what is of greater importance and significance to them and their child. 

The birth family wants the child to be able to choose their own religion if they wish – Some parents want to grant their child the freedom to choose the faith that they want when they are older if they choose to practice any faith at all. The ability for their child to craft their own identity, even from birth, is important to these parents. Many adoptees grow up to choose a religion to practice but are immensely grateful that they were able to choose their beliefs and were not forced to practice anything. After all, a belief system is only truly effective if you truly believe in it.
