Single Mother

Hi,

I am a single mom adopting in LA. As a single parent I had to sign a form saying I was a hetrosexual and another form that is called the male role model addendum that just states who the male role models will be in my son's life. Other than those two additional forms the process seens to be the same as for couples adopting.

There were some readings in the Guatemalan court last year regarding changes to the adoption process. One of the changes was that they were no longer going to allow single parent adoptions. You can read more about this on the guadadopt.org website. I think those changes are now on hold and there are other issues now that are mentioned on this list serve. Good luck!
