Toddler Adoption looks at the unique joys and challenges of adopting and parenting a toddler.When a child is adopted between the ages of 12 to 36 months, they often show signs of cognitive and emotional immaturity, which can cause behavioral and relational issues. This book offers support and practical tools to help parents prepare for and support the toddler's transition between the familiar environment of their biological parent's home or foster home to a new and unfamiliar one, and considers the issues that arise at different developmental stages. It highlights the challenges that parents are likely to encounter, but also gives positive guidance on how to overcome them.Written by a specialist in children's development who is also an adoptive parent herself, this fully revised and updated edition of the go-to-source on adopting toddlers is essential reading for both parents and professionals working with adoptive families.

1. Why Write a Book on Toddler Adoption? 2. Is Toddler Adoption For You? 3. Getting Started on Adoption. 4. The Adoption Transition. 5. Understanding Your Toddler's Development. 6. Parenting the Grieving Toddler. 7. Becoming Attached. 8. Behavior Management. 9. Parents Have Needs, Too. Epilogue. Appendix. Resources. Adoption References. Attachment References. Parenting References. Index.

Thank you for this compelling and readable exploration of an issue that has been lost in the shuffle before now GÇô that adopting a child at the toddler stage is not a mere extension of what we know about adopting infants, nor do the tools proven useful for families adopting older children work with toddlers. Both parents and professionals will find this an invaluable tool.
