Indiana Adoption Lawyers Helping Pregnant Teens and Their Parents
As the parent of a pregnant teen, you may be feeling many of the same emotions as your daughter: shock, anger, fear or uncertainty. Maybe your teen was scared to tell you about her pregnancy, or maybe she came to you right away. In either case, your child will need to lean on you for support as she makes decisions that will affect the rest of her life.
At the Indiana law office of Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C., we understand your situation. We have worked with and counseled many pregnant teens and their parents for the past 20 years. Our firm is dedicated to helping pregnant teens weigh their options and understand the enormous benefits of adoption.
If you are a parent of a pregnant teen and would like advice and counseling on how to discuss with your daughter the options she faces, contact the Indiana adoption attorneys at Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. today. We offer free, no-obligation consultations to pregnant teens and the parents of pregnant teens, and we will travel by car or airplane to meet you wherever you are.
Helping You Present Options and Advise Your Pregnant Teen
Your teen may come to you for advice and counseling after she discovers she is pregnant. Even if you are not a parent, but are a concerned family member, guardian, guidance counselor, teacher or other role model, you may still play a very important role in a pregnant teen's decision. Pregnant teens often need the support and help of their closest family and friends.
Attorneys Steve and Joel Kirsh can help you understand how to talk to your pregnant teen in a loving way, helping her consider her options and alternatives to abortion, including adoption. If you choose, they can meet with you and your daughter for no cost and with no obligation, and will come to you. Before your daughter makes her decision, please call Steve or Joel at 866-469-9200.
The mainstream media, advertisements and friends may have created misconceptions about adoption in your or your daughter's mind. However, movies like "Juno" have helped shed new light on adoption and helped teens see adoption plans in a new way. We see birthmothers as heroes who make mature and loving decisions that benefit their children. Like the National Council for Adoption, we also understand that there is more than one way to be a good mother:
- Most teens would say that a good parent provides everything a child needs for a happy, healthy and positive life, usually the same benefits that they received from their own parents.
- An adoption plan allows a good mother to give her child a loving, supportive family that will love her child and provide all the benefits that the birthmother is unable to provide.
If you are the parent of a pregnant teen and would like more information, please contact the Indianapolis law firm of Kirsh & Kirsh, P.C. We offer free, no-obligation consultations for parents and pregnant teens, and we have counselors available.
You and your teen may wonder about who is waiting to adopt. Please see our Families Waiting to Adopt page for detailed information about these loving couples.
