Presentation about adoption

＊Hello.
I introduce about different of adoption between Japan and America.
＊１　I chose this theme for the reason why I learned about adoption in America.
＊２　When I learned about it, I felt that it is not popular adoption in Japan.
Do you know adoption child in Japan? I don’t know, and I hadn't heard it around me.
However, it is not rare adoption in America. That’s because I met a adopted child in near my host family house.
＊３　My host father said, adopted children so many in America.
And I want to search this theme.
 Adoption is formed parent and child relation in nothing parent and child relation for artificially.

＊１　First, I explain about adoption in Japan.
When Japan before the war, adoption is thought as same as slave for many people.
＊２　It had what someone's own child turn adopted child by economically reason. Other reason is succession to the head position in a family and succession to take over the family business.  Thinking before the war in Japan to adoption, it is valid opinion more economically and utilitarian than welfare for children. Of course, all adoption in Japan was not doing for economically and utilitarian reason.
＊３　Also, there are some children born by unexpected pregnancy. After they were born soon, real mother gave couple of nothing child in the nineteen seventies in Japan. It was secret. A case of secret came to light. That’s because in 1973, an obstetrician in Miyagi placed advertisement about adoption in a newspaper. That Another, I realized that in Japan adoption has strong motion into blood relationship better than America.
＊４　This is related to Confucianism I think. It is important for Confucianism to have blood relationship. That’s because, I consider that formed parent and child relation in nothing parent and child relation for artificially, adoption not filtered in Japan. And, adoption in Japan has a lot meaning.

＊１　Next, I explain about adoption in America.
＊２　what adoption in American important is the best interests of the child. In other words, the aim of adoption in America is to give an adoptive parent instead of real parent for the child by whom it is not given though suitable binging-up is needed. Other, it is rare that a state admit adoption of adult people. America is stricter than Japan about adoption system. By this, freedom into the adoption system is severe in America. America’s adoption system succeeds to exclude utilitarian purpose like Japan. The basic important things of America’s adoption system are children’s welfare I feel. There are some which were observed as a reason adoption is performance briskly in the United States. It is religion view.
＊３　Many of Americans are Christian. The abortion act is forbidden into Christianity. That’s because, many children born by unexpected pregnancy become adoption children. And they are cherished by adoptive parent.

＊１　The above- mentioned items are the different of adoption between Japan and America. I think religion  is the most biggest reason in different of adoption between Japan and America I think.

That’s all. Thank you for a listening.
