Children who are adopted or fostered and children who are seeking asylum are all trying to survive things that have happened to them in the past. This may make them behave differently to other children, perhaps in a way that could cause problems in a community. This short guide will help people to understand more about these children, their background and behaviour, and to think about ways in which they can welcome and support them.

This is a life story workbook which will help birth children to know themselves, their history and their role in the family, prior to fostered children coming to live in their family. There is information about what fostering, adoption, and getting "approved" before having children to stay, mean. Working through this book will help prepare birth children to welcome new arrivals into their homes and lives.

The book is based on a unique study about what motivates some adopted people to search or not. They highlight the issues involved and provide a greater understanding of the complexities and feelings that may be encountered on the way. Users will gain an insight into what it is like growing up adopted and an understanding of the lifelong issues for all concerned.
