When a child joins a family through adoption, much of the focus is naturally on the adopted child, and how he or she copes with the experience of moving to a new family. But adoption also raises issues for any children already in that family. What do they think about their family adopting a child? How do they feel about the assessment process and the wait? How do they react to meeting a new brother or sister with whom they are going to live and share?
This is the first film about adoption from a child's point of view. It features a number of birth children who have had the experience of adopting a child into their family. They talk candidly and heartwarmingly about how they were prepared and prepared themselves for a child joining their family. This video is intended as a starting point for exploration and discussion with adoptive parents and their birth children. It will trigger a number of questions and will enable prospective parents as well as social workers to listen to children and find out how they feel. Trainers who are running preparation groups for prospective adoptive parents will also find this video invaluable, and social workers can show the video to prospective adoptive parents as part of their home study.
