In this article, the author takes a unique approach to adoption, criticizing the law’s heavy emphasis on adoption while not promoting other permanency alternatives. The author advocates the use and promulgation of subsidized guardianship and cooperative adoption as positive alternatives to traditional adoption. First, the author considers the Adoption and Safe Families Act (ASFA). Discussions of therapeutic jurisprudence and preventive lawfollow. Then, she talks about family systems theory and cultural competence, leading to discussion of her two favorite alternatives. After examining these theories and approaches, she concludes that these options do a better job of maintaining family relations and correspond more closely with psychological theory.
