When beginning your Florida adoption journey, you might hear or come across transracial adoption. Transracial adoption is an adoption where a birth mother places her child with an adoptive family of different races or ethnicities.
When you work with us here at Adoption Choices of Florida, we do our best to provide you with the information you need to create your adoption plan. One of the steps in the process is picking the adoptive family to place your child with. You will be able to look at the information and profiles of families we have on our waiting list. You will have the luxury of picking the family you think is the best fit for your child. Now while you are looking for the best fit for your child, in the end, you might find that the family that is the best fit is a family of a different race. Now some pros and cons come with transracial adoption.
One of the pros is that no matter the adoptive family’s race, your child will be going to a loving home and family.
One of the cons of transracial adoption is that in the beginning, there are times when your child might feel like an outsider in the family because they look different from their adoptive parents and siblings. However, the adoptive family and your child can overcome this. It helps when the adoptive family incorporates aspects of your child’s culture into their home life. Also, as your child participates in the family more and celebrates with their family, they will feel more comfortable and like a true member of the family.
The cons of transracial adoption, specifically the con of people staring in public and discouraging comments, are starting to go away. Transracial adoption and transracial families are happening and being seen every day worldwide. This has caused society to accept transracial adoptions and transracial families. With this growth and society being more accepting of transracial adoptions, you can see examples of transracial adoptions on television in movies and television shows.
You can find examples of other transracial families throughout your everyday life. For instance, when you are running errands, you can see a transracial family and see that they are a family just because they are of a different race. In addition, you can see how happy they are and just like any other ordinary family.
