Synopsis

In recent years families established across national, racial, cultural and ethnic boundaries represent a growing demographic in the United States and are broadening the diversity of family unit forms. International adoptions are comprised of parents who bring into their families a child from another country to a new country with its own diversity challenges. Such families can benefit from supportive information that helps to guide and fortify the family unit. The book, Help! My Child Doesn’t Look Like Me: Adoptive Parents -- Bridging Cultural, Ethnic and Racial Differences, is a tool that assists adoptive parents, prospective adoptive parents, and introductory professionals with pertinent definitions, instructions, and benefits of embracing multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, and multi-racial differences in adopted and pre-adoptive children. These tools are enlightening and will secure the bridge of endearment and acceptance between the adoptee and adoptive parents by dispelling myths and offering strategies for understanding and embracing differences. Moreover, the book helps to successfully nurture trans-racial adoption and healthy international families.
