A New Family
Step 1. Questions
There are many different kinds of families. They all experience different kinds of change. Each type of change, small or large, means that people must adjust .. Sometimes, babies or children are left without a parent or guardian to care for them. On the other hand, people sometimes want a child very much but cannot have one. When these two needs are brought together through the process of adoption, new and wonderful families can begin. How does a family change when there is an adoption?
Use this e-journal project as the opportunity to learn about the adoption process. The following questions can be used to guide your research:
