Our adoption specialist suggested we take yet ANOTHER course! This one if for fostering bonding and attachment in children. We have been to 1 so far and have 4 more classes. I think it will be interesting. There are couples in the class who have adoptive placements of toddlers and are dealing with major attachment and/or tantrum issues. We've learned so far that no matter the age of the child that gets placed with us, it is highly likely that they will have some sort of bonding or attachment need. Even babies! One of my friends from high school adopted a baby and said that she even had some bonding issues. She sounds like she's doing really well now, though (she's 1 year old).
The teacher is kind of crazy but entertaining. We'll see...
