A Kid's Guide to Adoption
Tells what adoption is and how it works. Also looks at some of the reasons kids
are put up for adoption and provides tips for coping with it.
But adoption is another way families are created
Adoption means a legal process that allows someone to become the parent of a child, even though the parent and child are not related by blood
By going through this legal process of adoption, they are promising to take care of the child and make him or her part of their family
What's Adoption and How Does It Work? It often takes a lot of time and effort to adopt a child
Adoptions are usually handled by a government agency or a private group
Before letting them adopt a child, adoption workers need to find out a lot of stuff about the adoptive couple
With some adoptions, the birth mother or father can stay involved in the kid's life
Adoption makes you a real son or daughter

Roots and Wings Adoption Magazine
Article about talking to a child's school about adoption.
TO TELL OR NOT TO TELL...What do you say to the school about adoption and your child? As my friend, Linda, and I hung out at the neighborhood children's gym, counting the days until "Black Saturday" (when the acceptances and, more likely, the rejections for the Los Angeles private schools come in the mail), she kept saying, "I know you will get in, because Emily is such a neat kid -- and because she was adopted, " implying that the circumstances of our daughter's entry into the family would give her an edge over the competition
Linda's theory was that adoption falls into the category of "diversity" -- a hot commodity in these multi-cultural times
I, on the other hand, was not only unconvinced that adoption would help us, I was full of conflict over whether I had done Emily potential damage by even mentioning it
What if the teachers had prejudiced, negative views of adoption -- and adopted children? I called the school director and asked her to take the information out of our file and to keep it to herself
So, why did I go public when the kindergarten application process came 'round? Because meanwhile, I had read that knowing could sensitize the school to adoption issues when it came time for the "family tree" assignments and other lessons on reproduction and biology, and, thereby, create a more supportive atmosphere for an adopted child
