What does adoption mean?

Legal analysis: what we usually call "adoption" is "adoption" in the legal sense, which means that children born to others, including illegitimate children and orphans, are voluntarily adopted as their own children through legal procedures. Adopt someone else's child as your own. Adopters are called adoptive parents, and adoptees are called adopted sons and daughters. Although the relationship between adoptive parents and adopted children is not related by blood, it is based on the principle of mutual voluntariness. Once legally established, it should be regarded as blood relationship and protected by law.

Legal basis: Article 1098 of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC), the adopter shall meet the following conditions at the same time:

(a) no children or only one child;

(2) Having the ability to support, educate and protect the adoptee;

(3) Not suffering from diseases that are medically considered unsuitable for adopting children; (4) All criminal records that are not conducive to the healthy growth of the adoptee; (five) at least thirty years of age.
