Is open adoption still in the experimental stage?

Can you answer maybe’s question about Adoption?:

How well was open adoption researched before adoption agencies and attorneys began to offer this option?

Was there much thought about the effect on the either the child, the natural mother, or the adoptive family?

Do people enter into open adoption agreements thinking it will be easier on all parties involved?

Are possible complexities explored before the open adoption is agreed to?

I’m asking this because there are a lot of questions about both mothers and adoptive families who have difficulty keeping in touch and honoring the open adoption agreement. What are your opinions?
Thanks to everyone for telling your stories, opinions, and research. All of the answers are informative and important – I can’t choose a best answer, so I will put the question to a vote.

Thank you!
