What they DON'T tell you on prep groups!
This is a blog of the things we have learned as a new adoptive Mum and Dad to three children under the age of five. For 'Mum' you can read 'Dad' and 'parent'. It is also a record of some of the things no-one told us on the prep groups. Some of it is what children get up to in general and some of it is adoption-specific. Regardless, it should be an interesting read for any parent, prospective and adoptive. Feel free to add your comments, which I shall publish.

Being an adoptive Mum is...
...hearing them shout at each other in the most horrendous way and admonishing them. Then wondering where they got that terrible screaming from and it hitting you in the face it's the way you scream at them when you have lost control. And then the guilt of wondering just what damage your parenting is doing to them :(
