The perfect starting point for parents of transracially adopted
children and those who are considering adopting transracially. The
Interracial Adoption Option is a personal guide to interracial
adoption which draws on the lives and experiences of the authors, a
white US couple, who adopt two African-American children. Starting
from their decision to adopt their first child interracially, it
describes the situations and decisions that followed as a result of
their child's racial background. The authors' combine their
personal experiences with practical advice. They address common
issues like where to live, how to choose a doctor and how to take
care of your child's hair and skin. They also tackle difficult
questions such as, 'Does race matter?' 'Why is a healthy racial
identity important?' and 'What do I do if I suspect my child is
being treated unfairly because of his/her race?' An accessible
introduction to the complex world of interracial adoption, this
book is the first book you need to read if you are thinking of
adopting transracially or have done so already.
