Beyond Good Intentions BAD025
$18.95
Parents who adopt children internationally have to grab for a firm handhold on a swinging pendulum of child raising advice. Should they act as if they are colorblind or bolster their child's racial identity? Should they help their child assimilate to the adopted culture or leap full force, as a family, into the child's birth culture? The best adoption agencies scramble to provide their clients the truth-of-the-moment. Child psychologists and other professionals weigh in as experts on what that truth ought to be. Eager parents seek each other's support on the Internet. Adult adoptees have much to say, but some of their testimony troubles new parents. Seldom heard are older, seasoned parents, who tend to withdraw from the discussion as their children grow and develop their own interests.
