This brief handbook gives grandparents-to-be and other relatives information about adoption today that will directly affect them. This includes the need today for a more open approach to adoption and information about the children who need to be adopted - rarely the babies of earlier times but children with pasts and families, and who may be damaged by earlier abuse and neglect.
