Description

"[This] book, with all its examples from different kinds of adoptive parents and from various types of adoptions is so compassionate, reassuring, and jargon-free, it empowers adoptive parents. . . . Recommended reading for all adoptive parents and anyone considering adoption."—Aline Zoldbrod, Option Two   "Parents and professionals who wish to get some practical, down-to-earth ideas about communicating with and understanding the young adopted child will relish this book."—Vivek Kusumakar, Journal of the Canadian Academy of Child Psychiatry  How do young children make sense of the fact that they are adopted? What worries might they have? In this insightful and sympathetic book, a clinical psychologist and a psychiatrist, both adoptive mothers, prepare parents for conversations with their children about adoption. Accounts with twenty parents of conversations about adoption with their children, from ages two to ten, graphically convey what the process of sharing about adoption is like.
