Synopsis

“A poignant, personal tale about the psychological costs of an adoption gone wrong.” Robert Pelc, Ph.D., A.B.P.P.

“Both adoption professionals and those in the adoption triad can benefit from the peculiar revelations of this frank, passionate journey.”
Damsel Plum, former Publications Chair, Bastard Nation

“It is through brave personal accounts such as these that we can shatter the myths of adoption and begin to see the real-life problems with which adoption is fraught and stop promoting it to birth and adoptive parents unrealistically.”
Mirah Riben, author of Shedding Light on the Dark Side of Adoption, former Director-at-Large for the American Adoption Congress

When Adoption Fails: abuse, autism, and the search for my identity is the story of Theresa Werba, an undiagnosed autistic adoptee who endured an abusive adoptive home, several identity changes, a disinheritance, and the discovery of her biological mother and father. From heartache to joy, suffering to healing, questions to answers, Theresa Werba's story is one of strength through adversity and one adoptee's quest for the truth of her identity-- at any cost. A heartfelt, honest and compelling story which is of interest to adoptees, adoptive parents, and adoption professionals.
