Helpful tips for talking to your child about adoption can be hard to find. In this webinar, we’ll help you find the right words to use! One of the most difficult, but important aspects of being an adoptive parent is learning how to comfortably discuss adoption issues with your child. What will your child ask you about adoption? When can you expect it? Will you know what to say? Part 1 of Talking with Children about Adoption provides parents with information and techniques for talking with children in a developmentally appropriate manner, and for helping children cope with comments, feelings, and intrusive questions.
