Independent Adoption
In an independent adoption (also called a direct placement), the choice of adopting parents is the birth mother's. She can meet them if she wants to, or she can choose to simply talk to them on the phone or see their pictures. But no matter what she decides to do, she'll know all about them: who they are, what they do, how much money they make, how long they've been married, if they own their own home, if they have any other children, their religions, their lifestyles, etc. There is nothing the birth mother won't be told before she makes her adoption decision.
