title: [Consent to adoption].
abstract: Many legal provisions exist that aim at preventing children from being abandoned. However, in some instances, these apparently beneficial measures result in de facto abandonments. In such cases, the abandonment is delayed, and as a result the child is no longer eligible for adoption. This situation leads to a number of successive changes that are emotionally detrimental to the child. We need prophylactic measures aimed at obtaining the "consent to adoption" from mothers who obviously feel and are incapable of being mothers in the full sense of the term.
