Title: not very useful for infant adoption
Review: I am sure this is an excellent book for parents of children adopted when they were older, or parents who are currently going through attachment problems. However, I read this book as a prospective adoptive parent of a 6-month-old baby, and all it did was cause great anxiety and worry. I imagined all kinds of frightening scenarios. Also, there is hardly any advice to parents adopting infants. I would have been much better off waiting to purchase this book IF I needed it. For now, it's going on the bookshelf and I'll pull it out in the future only if we develop some sort of problem. I gained MUCH more useful advice on attachment from a brief insert I received in my Adoptive Families Magazine.
