Adoption Facts and Myths

Adoption Facts & Adoption Myths

There is a bit of a myth going around, even in the circle of those who are adopting, that once an adopted child is home with their new mum and dad they will be happy as they are now loved and part of a family.

This may happen if the child is able to move through their grief early, a lot of times it is just not the case.

Fact is, it will take time for your new child to adjust to the change. Children respond to you in their own way. For few it is an easy transition, for many others this will not be the case.
