We received an advance review copy of the book. Coming from a traditional family, my experience with adoptions has been limited to the friends I know who have been a part of the process with themselves or their families. Up until reading this book I assumed an adoption was beneficial for all parties if done for the right reasons. To say I was naïve about the process and its impact would be a huge understatement. The Adoption Paradox will open your eyes to the reality of the stresses and conflicts that exist with everyone involved. It will bring a harsh awakening to the history of adoption, and a compassionate heart for those who never had the chance to be part of a “traditional” family. This book was exceptionally researched and extremely thoughtful and beautifully written. It is recommended reading for anyone who cares enough to understand the impact an adoption can have on a family or friends, whether direct or indirect.
