Welcoming a new child into the home through adoption is a
life-altering experience-for the child, the parents, and everyone
else in the family. Expectations and realities often differ
dramatically, and adjusting to the change can be difficult and
emotionally painful. Since the majority of children available for
adoption today are in the system as the result of abuse and
neglect, parents must acknowledge the fact they these young
innocents will carry their trauma with them into their new homes. A
willingness to address the not-so-easy, didn't-see-that-coming
aspects of adoption is the first step toward building a strong
family. A valuable resource for parents and professionals, this
book provides useful strategies for facing the challenges posed by
adopted children. The inclusion of real stories from real people
adds heart and encouragement, offering hope for the future of the
entire family.
