Adoptive parents often wonder why their adopted child continues to be manipulative, defiant and aggressive despite all the love and generosity they have been given. Research shows the power that the infant's experiences and lack of nurturing have on later development. In Gotcha Welcoming Your Child Home, author and psychologist Patti M. Zordich, Ph.D., offers a refreshingly positive and clear explanation of the complex issues contributing to these behavior problems. She then provides guidelines for a simple, loving tool called Cocooning, Dr. Zordich's innovative system that helps parents heal these inner wounds, bringing their child to a more peaceful, loving place.
