Adventures in Adoption Anyone who has adopted a child, or is thinking of adopting, will benefit from Marsha Sanchez' experience with her adopted daughter. Ms. Sanchez is a licensed social worker with extensive experience dealing with the complicated family issues of her clients. However, she was not quite prepared for the challenges of helping a troubled child evolve into a responsible adult. The life lessons contained in this book are useful in all relationships, beyond those of families who choose adoption. Ms. Sanchez shows us how to accept others as they are, and love them while encouraging them to love themselves. Even though some of life's lessons are painful, we can be grateful for them and for the spiritual growth they offer us.
