Examine the pros and cons of nontraditional adoption! Welcome Home! An International and Nontraditional Adoption Reader is an essential guide to the process, pros, and cons of adopting children from outside the United States, with special needs, and/or from a different racial/cultural background. The book documents every aspect of the adoption procedure—from working with “facilitators,” adoption agencies, and attorneys to mixed reactions over a child’s possible loss of heritage as the result of a transracial or multicultural adoption. Parents and adoptees offer unique, firsthand perspectives on the cautions and benefits of nontraditional adoption. Americans adopted more than 20,000 children from other countries in 2001, a number that reflects humanitarian motives, the desire to adopt a child from a specific country, and/or frustration with the domestic adoption system. Including a foreword by United States Representative Ted Strickland, Welcome Home! is a practical resource for anyone thinking of establishing a family or adding to their own. The book provides insight into the adoption process, open adoption, biracial adoption, adopting a special needs child, cultural attitudes, and how to handle an adopted child’s questions in later years. It also addresses specific adoption issues, including: how to verify an agency’s credentials; how an agency negotiates with the birth mother; state and country laws and practices; tax benefits; and expenses, including legal and medical costs; and includes research findings on the Northeast-Northwest Collaborative Adoption Projects (N2CAP) Welcome Home! tells the stories of: Naomi and Fred, an intermarried couple (she’s Jewish, he’s not) who adopted a Greek baby in 1962 “Tina” and “Lee,” a lesbian couple, who adopted a baby from China Marianne, a professor of child and adolescent psychiatry at the University of Lund in Sweden, who adopted babies from Iran and Thailand—several years after her divorce Pamela, a divorced mother of four biological children who has adopted babies from Viet Nam and China All of her biological children Mildred—Pamela’s mother and the children’s grandmother Karen, adoptive mother and national chairperson for Families for Russian and Ukrainian adoption (FRUA) William, adoptive father of miracle sisters from Romania and many more! Welcome Home! is an invaluable source of unusual insight for psychologists, psychiatrists, marriage and family therapists, adoption agencies, counselors, social workers, attorneys, physicians, academics, and, of course, anyone considering adoption.

Reaching the lost, straying and cast down sheep of our generation - For such a time as this. Read how it's done. The author shares real life experiences from victim to overcomer. And the good news is: You can too. In a compelling true story the author tells how, as a child she worked all day in fields of sticky tobacco plants and prickly cotton bolls; and how cleansing it was at the end of the day to take the path less traveled back to the farmhouse. It was the path less traveled, which led to a refreshing pool of cool spring water where she could wash away all the dust and grime of the fields. She compares this to the experience when as a "cast down" sheep she came back to "The Father," who with outstretched arms of love offered Rivers of Mercy through Acceptance, Forgiveness and Restoration. Starwitness is a Central Florida Native, and a survivor of The Great Depression. During World War II, she worked on the Manhattan Project, employed by Tennessee Eastman Corporation in Oak Ridge Tennessee. Starwitness is a Retiree of the State of Florida where she worked as Nursing Home Coordinator with a team of Doctors, Nurses and Social Workers. After Retirement, she authored "The Viet Nam Hero" which was used in the Honors Program in Valencia Community College. She also authored "AS IS," A True Story of Hope. Now comes her latest release: "WELCOME HOME" - " As Is" She and her husband live in Central Florida and are the proud parents of two outstanding daughters, Patricia Stenstrom Agnew and Sharon Sue Barker, as well as four great grandchildren and nine great grandchildren.
