# ALTERNATIVE NAME 1: Statement 1 - Parent(s) should not be allowed to give away their babies without the approval of a judge. Checks must be done on the people who want to adopt the children to make sure they are safe. If the child is born outside of marriage and one of the parents does not want to keep the baby, the judge must make a decision.
# ALTERNATIVE NAME 2: Statement 2 - Parents should not be allowed to give away their babies without the approval of a judge. Checks must be done on the people who want to adopt the children to make sure they are safe. If the child is born outside of marriage and one of the parents does not want to keep the baby, the judge must make a decision. The final consensus statement was arrived at by looking at the pros and cons of each participant's opinions, and by looking at the strengths and weaknesses of the draft consensus statement. It is the group's hope that this consensus view will be useful to inform the policy makers on this important issue.
# ALTERNATIVE NAME 3: Statement 3 - Parent(s) should not be allowed to give away their babies without the approval of a judge. Checks must be done on the people who want to adopt the children to make sure they are safe. If the child is born outside of marriage and one of the parents does not want to keep the baby, the judge must make a decision. The above is a good example of how by carefully debating the opinion of each participant, a group of participants is able to come to a consensus.
# ALTERNATIVE NAME 4: Statement 4 - Parents should not be allowed to give away their babies without the approval of a judge. This will ensure that the child is being placed in the right family who are able to care for them, so that the child can grow up in a safe environment.
