This guide for adopters explores how to talk to children and young people about their adoption. It is essential that parents communicate openly with their adopted children, but discussing birth families and the background to an adoption demands real courage. It can be very difficult to know how and when to approach these subjects, especially when young people are struggling with a range of teenage emotions. In accessible language, author Renee Wolfs offers parents concrete strategies for talking about a wide range of issues.

Families who put themselves forward to adopt children who have suffered loss, abuse and trauma are frequently required to demonstrate extraordinary levels of emotional strength and resilience. Social workers and childcare professionals need to understand the complex range of feelings that are engendered in these new family units. Ten Top Tips for Supporting Adopters is intended to support the wide range of social workers who become involved in supporting adoptive placements and who may have differing levels of experience.
