Deciding to grow your family is never a decision to be taken likely, whether you are a parent already or embarking on the adventure for the first time! The journey to and through parenthood is, at the best of times, as any parent will readily admit, full of ups and downs - moments of pure joy, as well as many anxieties. Deciding to grow your family by adoption is of course no exception – whatever the reason for choosing to adopt, the joy of giving a needy child a loving home is undeniable, but, there are added complexities too. That is why BabySTEPPs, in celebration and support of every path to and through parenthood, are bringing National Adoption Awareness Week UK to Gibraltar too. It is hoped that by stimulating conversation around the subject, people who may be considering this as an option for their family, may be able to come together to support each other through the journey. Others may begin to ask themselves the question - could I adopt? There are many reasons why a child may be unable to be brought up by their biological parents, just as there are many reasons why people decide to bring up a child that is not biologically their own. It is important to move away from the notion of adoption as the realm of the infertile couple, as there are a great many families who have chosen to grow their families by adoption for reasons beyond being unable to have a baby. Criteria for adoption reflects the wide spread of individuals and families who can consider adopting – there really is no ‘typical’ adoptive family. But the process is of course, rightfully centred on finding the right adoptive parents for a child (not vice versa) hence the crucial and very detailed process to be undertaken before one can be ‘approved’ for adoption. As an opportunity for prospective adopters to evaluate themselves and their family, and make informed and carefully considered choices about whether they really could adopt, it is a test of commitment as much as anything else. In Gibraltar, this process of both vetting and supporting prospective adoptive parents always goes through the Child Placement Team at the Care Agency. In an effort to encourage adoption, it is a service that is provided free locally, unlike that in many other countries where the red tape surrounding adoptions can become very, very expensive. The Child Placement team describe their role as seeking “to provide a range of placements for children who live or are found locally and require to be accommodated. The team is involved in recruiting, training and assessing prospective adopters and foster carers and in providing them with ongoing support and guidance. The team also carries out the functions of a local “Adoption Agency” and co-ordinates Inter-country Adoptions.” Of course, while the focus of the awareness week is on adoption, the role of fostering must not be forgotten. Again, the needs of individual children vary, as does the length of their need for foster care, and so a variety of foster carers are needed to be able to best meet these needs. Adopting and fostering changes lives – nobody who has been touched by either can deny that. Like any act of good parenting, both require true commitment, a lot of patience and nurturing and undoubtedly, a good dash of humour - surely epitomising the ‘joy of parenthood’.
