Description

How can I start talking to my adopted child about their past? What information do children need at different ages? What if my child has difficult or painful experiences in their past? This book tells you all you need to know about the whys, whens and hows of telling the truth about an adopted child's origins.

It provides guidance on why telling your child is so important, what to tell your child and when, how adopted children and their birth parents feel, and where you can get more help.

This comprehensive book also includes expanded information on discussing adoption with older children, adoption support services, dealing with drug abuse in a child's past, contact issues, foster carers who adopt, 'mixed' families containing adopted, fostered and birth children, step-families and the variety of brother and sister combinations that can occur.

Rich with practical ideas and the experiences of adoptive parents and adopted children, this book contains everything adoptive parents need to know about communicating with their children.
