What I Want My Adopted Child to Know: An Adoptive Parent's
Perspective is a tender, revealing look at adoption from the parent
perspective. Whether you are an adoptive parent, an adoptee,
someone considering adoption, or simply curious about adoption
dynamics, What I Want My Adopted Child to Know: An Adoptive
Parent's Perspective will touch your heart and increase your
sensitivity to the challenges and joys that are unique to adoptive
parenting.
Bacchetta wrote the book in response to a need common among
adoptive families. "Adoptive families navigate emotional terrain
that fully-biological families don't have to. This is a book
adoptive parents can give to their child and say, 'I know adoption
is painful, unsettling, joyous, and affirming. It's that way for me
too. More than anything, adoption is the way we came together, and
I'll always be grateful for that.'"
Bacchetta's words echo with the collective voice of over 100
adoptive parents interviewed for this book. With chapters like "I
Would Do it All Again," "You Are Not Different Because You Were
Adopted," and "I Regret What I Can't Give You," What I Want My
Adopted Child to Know is by turns affirming, challenging,
thoughtful, wistful, and poignant.
