Parenting Adopted Children with Challenging Behavior

Parenting Adopted Kids with Challenging BehaviorSometimes adopted children will have experienced abuse, neglect, trauma, or prenatal exposure to alcohol or drugs, which can influence how a child behaves. Adoptive parents are faced with learning what causes their child to behave the way she does and what they can do to help her cope.
