The Story
Becoming a Mother will be of interest to the estimated 10 per cent of the Irish population connected to adoption in some way, including the 5,000 children who were adopted from abroad. The book has been included as essential reading on preparatory courses for prospective adoptive parents and also on Barnardos' post-adoptive service reading list. Draws on a combination of seminal and modern texts and personal memoir to present a unique view of what it means to be an adoptive parent in Ireland today. The book has a particular focus on inter-country adoptive parenting, and also looks at adoption from the viewpoints of the adopted person and birth parent.
