Closed petition: Ban adoption when birth parents are alive

Closed on 21 September 2025

Change the law on adoption to ban the removal of children from their biological parents. It should be mandatory to support biological parents with any issues they have and to promote the relationship between biological parents and their children.

It is my belief that every child should have a healthy relationship with their biological parent and the action of taking new born children from mothers is an abuse of human rights. I believe children should only be adopted if both parents are dead. The severing of mother and child (against her wishes) needs to be completely illegal.
