Found this at the library. I read it but its more about adopting out of the foster care system. Once again, another book that solidifies why this was not the path for us. Very eye opening book regarding the problems with adopting older children.

I learned alot from this book and have a better understanding of what challenges you face with an older child. If we adopt again it will be an older child and I will re-read this book. It is worth a read.
