Resumo: The general aim of this research was to understand how adoptive parents experience the adoption process, taking as a basis the Systemic Theory. Family has changed, assuming new configurations. The possibility of adoption by single parents was introduced in Brazil by the Child and Adolescent Statute. The New Adoption Law brought changes, which were established with regard to the parents’ experience. The participants were six adoptive parents, four women and two men, who had adopted babies as well as older children. They answered an interview which was approached according to the thematic content analysis. The results show the participants feel happy about the adoption, despite the prejudices they face, the difficult financial situation, and the lack of family support, in some cases. Some needs, such as a faster pace in the process and a previous parents’ training, were pointed out, aspects which are observed by the New Adoption Law.

La familia ha cambiado, tomando configuraciones nuevas. La posibilidad de que solteros adopten fue introducida en Brasil por el Estatuto del Niño y del Adolescente. La nueva Ley de Adopción trajo modificaciones, que se pusieron en diálogo con la experiencia de los padres. Los partícipes fueron seis adoptantes, cuatro mujeres y dos hombres, los cuales realizaron la adopción tanto de bebés como de niños mayores. Ellos contestaron a una entrevista que fue abordada de acuerdo con el análisis de contenido temático. Los resultados indican que los partícipes se han realizado con la adopción efectuada, no obstante los prejuicios enfrentados, la dificultad financiera y la falta de apoyo familiar, en algunos casos. Fueron señaladas como necesidades una mayor agilidad en el proceso y una preparación anterior de los padres, aspectos abarcados por la nueva Ley de Adopción.Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo geral compreender como pais adotivos solteiros vivenciam o processo de adoção, tomando como base a Teoria Sistêmica.
