Choosing an agency and finding a child to adopt
Dealing with school and language difficulties
Recognizing how grief affects your child's behavior
Deciding how much birthfamily contact is appropriate
Teaching your child to deal with racism
Handling difficult behavior such as tantrums and lying
Testing for and treating attachment disorder, ADHD, posttraumatic stress disorder, hepatitis, parasites, and other mental health and medical issues
