Abstract

Over the past few years, there has been growing recognition of the autonomy of children and their right to have a say in matters affecting their well-being. This is an area of South African law that has received much attention. However, very little attention has been given to child participation in the adoption process. This article investigates child participation in the statutory adoption process.
