Can a child put themselves up for adoption?
Not really. In the past, it was thought that a child could not consent to adoption—that is, an adoption couldn't be finalized unless he or she had been given up by his or her parents. In Utah, a child who is ten or eleven years old has to consent to the adoption, but that’s not the same as putting themselves up for adoption. If a child doesn’t like their parents, they can’t just go find new parents.
