What do I do???

going thru with your adoption alaone
A legal adoption process involves a social worker and a lawyer or an agency or both. Post-placement followups are also part of the finalization process prior to the court awards permanent custody. Concealment can ultimately work against you. Why not sit down with someone knowledgable about adoption who knows your situation and in whom you have trust and share your concerns first and then decide on the next step?
