End forced adoption

Petition Details

Forced adoption, or non-consensual adoption, allows the UK government to put children up for adoption without parental consent.

Consider consensual adoptions only and to reverse all other adoptions.


Punishment without crime must be eliminated from our legal system.

Additional Information

Forced Adoption can cause life long pain and suffering, for the children and families involved.

Concerns around human rights, healthy development in forcibly adopted children and heightened trauma experienced by vulnerable parents has led to the majority of countries implementing consensual adoption practices.

Forced adoption has to end. It is emotional abuse.
