Description

Product Description
No matter how loving your adoptive home, growing up adopted presents unique challenges––challenges the majority of adoptees don’t talk about.

Were you adopted as an infant or child? If so, imagine what it would be like to attend a gathering of all adoptees. What would you ask them? Author Sherrie Eldridge says adoptees might ask each other:

· Do you ever feel alone?
· Do you struggle with fears of rejection?
· Do you have a special place in your heart for your birth parents?
· Do you know who to trust?
· Do you have a good self-image?
· Do you feel like you don’t belong?
· Do you ever think about a reunion with your birth family?

Sherrie Eldridge has interviewed more than seventy adoptees, who transparently share their stories in Twenty Life-Transforming Choices Adoptees Need to Make, a book for adoptees and by adoptees. This book is a celebration of adoption based on the fact that adoption can teach some of life’s deepest and richest lessons.

Upon hearing the stories of others, you will realize you’re not alone but are instead in the company of an incredible bunch of people who will inspire you to make life choices that propel you to become all you were created to be.

On reading Sherrie Eldridges book I was amazed at seeing what could have been my own words staring back at me. Sherries book made me realize that i am not alone in my thoughts and feelings on adoption, and that the process we go through to come to terms with our own stories and situations is indeed normal.

Thank you Sherrie and keep up the good work

Sherrie Eldridge's book TWENTY LIFE-TRANSFORMING CHOICES ADOPTEES NEED TO MAKE that I read in 2004, helped me on many levels in my life as an adopted child. Thank you, Sherrie, and God bless you!

I was reluctant to read this book due to the reviews criticizing the religious jargon but was glad I did. The book does have many good underlying messages that touch the core of an adoptees experience and I would recommend it to anyone searching for answers on how adoption plays a key role in developing how we relate to the world. Although I did find the pious God loves you theme a bit annoying and simply skipped over those parts.

Sheree's other book "20 Things Every Adoptee Wishes Their Adoptive Parents Knew" was even more enlightening, offering some valuable information without trying to "save" you.

I read this book after locating my birthparents. I wish I read it before. It was written in a way that made me feel like I knew the author and she was relating my own personal feelings and thoughts. I probably would have found my family many years earlier had I been given the support and validation and guidance that this book gave to me. This is a book for adoptive parents to read as it helps one understand the feelings that often arent validated by the world but are so real to us. It also can help one to decide when and if a search is right for them. I bought this book for my 2 friends who are adoptive parents and for 3 of my friends who are adopted themselves. I highly recommend it to anyone in the adoption triad.

I liked Sherrie's first book much better. This book is good for the religious at heart. But for those who are offended by religious jargon, consider the following healing books.

For adoptees: Whose Child? by Kasey Hamner
For Birthmothers: The Other Mother by Carol Schaefer
