This is a book of real life stories of adopters which takes the
reader through every stage of the adoption process starting with
the moment when they decide that adoption is the right option for
them to the stories of adoptees brought up by adoptive parents.
In between, the book looks at all the different types of
adoption that are carried out by all sorts of families from all
sorts of children of every race and age and with every kind of
problem. They range from babies who are only a few days old when
they are taken into an adoptive family to teenagers with a
multitude of psychological and physical problems. The book looks at
both the success and failure of these adoptions.
Its aim is to inform and enlighten professionals, adopters,
potential adopters and all those lives have in some way been
touched by adoption or want to know more about it.
In 15 chapters it includes more than 70 real life stories which
are all told from the heart -- sometimes in a moment of crisis and
sometimes at a time of joy. They are not analyzed; they are true
stories about how it feels to be at the center of adoption. All the
stories, which have been recounted over the past 10 years, are
reflective of adoption today in Britain.
The book also includes a chapter on the legal aspects of
adoption and a further chapter of useful information and
addresses.
