Abstract | Examined role of informal social response by having involuntarily childless women (N=71) detail their perceptions of societal beliefs about adoption concerning the importance of the biological tie for bonding and love; the unknown genetic past of adopted children and the view that adoptive parents are not "real" parents. Discusses how family practitioners can alleviate the stigma potential of adoption. (Author/NB) |
