How can a birth mother make sure adoption is the right choice?
A birth mother needs professional guidance to ensure she has all pertinent birth parent information and knows all of her options so that she can make an informed — and thoroughly thought-out — choice. When Steven represents birth mothers, he ensures they get this help. He meets with birth mothers in his office, whenever possible, (providing transportation if needed) explaining all aspects of the adoption process, including each step birth parents will go through. He talks with the birth mother about why she’s chosen adoption, helping her to reexamine the decision and make sure it’s the right one for her.
