Adoption For Dummies [EPUB ebook] 

You hear all sorts of things said or implied about adoption. Some
information comes from people who know a lot about it, while some
comes from people who don’t know anything about it but make
assumptions anyway. Some comes from people whose experiences have
been good; some from those whose experiences have been bad. The
result? Enough conflicting information to make your head spin.
So when everyone has an opinion and most of the books on the
market deal with specific aspects on adoption or particular types
of adoptions, where do you turn to for reliable information?
Start with Adoption For Dummies.
The great thing about this guide is that you decide where
to start and what to read. It’s a reference you can jump into
and out of at will. Just head to the table of contents or the
index to find the information you want. Each part of Adoption
For Dummies covers a particular aspect of adoption,
including:
* Answering the basic adoption questions – How
much does it cost? Who’s involved? How long does it take?
What do I need to know that I don’t know to ask? And
more.
* Getting started – and figuring out what steps
you have to take.
* Dealing with birthmothers and
birthfathers – and why, even though they may not be
part of your life, they’re still important to you.
* Confronting the issues adoptive families
face – issues from sharing the adoption story with
your child, to answering your child’s questions about his
birthparents, to handling rude family members who treat your child
differently than her cousins.
* Finding help – from books, resources, and
support groups.
No adoption book – at least no adoption book
that you can carry around without a hydraulic
lift – can tell you everything there is to know
about adoption. What Adoption For Dummies tells you is what
you need to know, all in an easy-to-use reference.
