Talk about how infinitely difficult it is to be foster parents, because a child who has lost a family is always a “child wounded in the soul”, and you will inevitably have to share this pain with him. The book touches upon the most painful questions facing those who have become or are about to become adoptive parents.
Talk about how infinitely difficult it is to be foster parents, because a child who has lost a family is always a “child wounded in the soul”, and you will inevitably have to share this pain with him. The book touches upon the most painful questions facing those who have become or are about to become adoptive parents. Does the child need to know that he is not native? Is it possible (and how) to cope with the traumas he received in his parental family? Does he need contact with blood relatives? Brilliant psychologist Lyudmila Petranovskaya has been working with foster families for many years and has a rare ability to speak honestly and openly, patiently and clearly on the most painful topics. Her reader will never feel guilty for his mistakes (they are inevitable for a living person), on the contrary, he feels support and understanding. And he himself begins to better understand his child: what one or another of his words or actions say, why he reacts this way and not otherwise, how best to help him. It would be nice if this little book became a desktop for all the brave people who decide to adopt.
