"An extremely useful parenting handbook... truly outstanding ... strongly recommended."
â??Library Journal (starred review)

"A tremendous resource for parents and professionals alike."
â??Thomas Atwood, president and CEO, National Council for Adoption

The adoption of a child is always a joyous moment in the life of a family. Some adoptions, though, present unique challenges. Welcoming these children into your familyâ??and addressing their special needsâ??requires care, consideration, and compassion.

Written by two research psychologists specializing in adoption and attachment, The Connected Child will help you:

  • Build bonds of affection and trust with your adopted child
  • Effectively deal with any learning or behavioral disorders
  • Discipline your child with love without making him or her feel threatened
  • "A must-read not only for adoptive parents, but for all families striving to correct and connect with their children."
    â??Carol S. Kranowitz, author of The Out-of-Sync Child

    "Drs. Purvis and Cross have thrown a life preserver not only to those just entering uncharted waters, but also to those struggling to stay afloat."
    â??Kathleen E. Morris, editor of S. I. Focus magazine

    "Truly an exceptional, innovative work . . . compassionate, accessible, and founded on a breadth of scientific knowledge and clinical expertise."
    â??Susan Livingston Smith, program director, Evan B. Donaldson Adoption Institute

    "The Connected Child is the literary equivalent of an airline oxygen mask and instructions: place the mask over your own face first, then over the nose of your child. This book first assists the parent, saying, in effect, 'Calm down, you're not the first mom or dad in the world to face this hurdle, breathe deeply, then follow these simple steps.' The sense of not facing these issues aloneâ??the relief that your child's behavior is not off the chartsâ??is hugely comforting. Other children have behaved this way; other parents have responded thusly; welcome to the community of therapeutic and joyful adoptive families."
    â??Melissa Fay Greene, author of There is No Me Without You: One Woman's Odyssey to Res

    "The Connected Child" by Karyn Purvis, David Cross and Wendy Sunshine" is filled with tips for those who adopt children who have special behavioral and emotional needs. They explain that more traditional responses such as isolating time outs, only serve to further isolate a child who already has trust and loss issues.

    This excellent book is easy to read and lays out its suggestions in a really informative way. I definitely plan to incorporate some of its techniques into our home. ( )

    I thought this book had some great information in it. I think many of the tips and approaches would work for any family whether their children are adopted or not or whether they have special behavioral needs or not. There are chapters on disarming fear, dealing with defiance, teaching life values, how to nurture at every opportunity, and, my favorite chapter, proactive strategies to make life easier. At the end of this one, the authors include a daily Skills Practice Checklist, that includes the life values. I would recommend this book for any adoptive families. ( )

    Great book! This is a must-read for adoptive and foster families of older children. Purvis includes lots of concrete tips and advice for helping your child cope with the emotional journey to a new family. Keep it on your bookshelf and refer to it often! ( )

    This book was written for parents of children from other countries, from troubled backgrounds and with special behavioral or emotional needs. It teaches you ways to deal with/handle situations with these children -- such as redirection, building trust, and disarming fear responses. We have a very very fearful child and I found value in their suggestions. It is written in a easy-to-read manner and doesn't take long to finish. Not sure that I would suggest buying it...but a great library find for those looking for a little extra information on extreme behaviors. ( )
