Raising Adopted Children/FIRST EDITION FIRST EDITION

“THE FIRST CHILD CARE MANUAL FOR ADOPTIVE PARENTS”
“Bound to be a classic guide referred to year after year, this unique resource covers circumstances important to all adoptive parents, however they chose to adopt. Lois Melina–an adoptive parent, journalist, and editor of Adopted Child, the foremost adoption newsletter–draws on the most recent adoption research in child development, psychology, sociology and medicine, and the experiences of adoptive families to provide practical and authoritative advice not found in other child care manuals. She discusses questions such as: 1. When–and how–do I tell my child she is adopted? 2. What should schools be told about our adopted child? 3. How will attachment grow between our child and us? 4. How can adoption make adolescent upheavals more complicated? 5. How does infertility affect our role as adoptive parents?”
