| Abstract
|
:
|
"The adoption of a child is always a joyous moment in the life of a family. Some adoptions, though, present unique challenges. Welcoming these children into your family--and addressing their special needs--requires care, consideration, and compassion. This book will help you build bonds of affection and trust with your adopted child; effectively deal with any learning or behavioral disorder; discipline your child with love without making him or her feel threatened"--Back cover.
