Description

An informative guide covering the ins and outs of the adoption process. The thousands of Americans who consider adoption each year face a host of tough questions. Should we adopt within the country or internationally? Should we adopt through an agency, foster care system, or independently? Should the adoption be "open" or "closed"? To say nothing of the anxiety of being evaluated as potential parents. "Adoption For Dummies" walks readers through every step of the adoption process, from deciding whether or not they are ready to adopt a child, to choosing the right form of adoption, to deciding whether to meet with birthparents. This comprehensive, compassionate guide covers money-saving techniques for dealing with adoption and legal fees, as well as time-saving tips on cutting through the red tape and speeding up the adoption process. "Adoption For Dummies" also deals with the difficult situation of what happens when dissolving an adoption and offers tips and advice on dealing with the first 12 weeks spent with an adopted child.

Author Biography:
