The nurse is counseling

a family who is
anticipating the
adoption of a 6-year old
boy. The family is
currently in the
marriage stage of growth
and development.

1. What rationale should the nurse use to formulate an

approach when advising this family to visit a health care
facility soon after the adopted child has arrived in the
home?
2. What are some common factors that exist with parents who
adopt children that may cause the parents to be less
resilient when adjusting their lives to the presence of a new
baby?
3. Why would it be extremely important for the adoptive
parents to tell the child of his adoption as early as possible?
4. The adoption has been final for six months, and the family
visits the community health center for a well-child
preschool check-up. The parents state that the child
exhibited defiant and hostile behaviors after being told of
his adoption. How would you, as the nurse, analyze this
behavior and give an explanation to the parents?
