The adoption triangle revisited - J. P Triseliotis

What do adoptive parents think of their child's search for birth parents and other family members? How do birth mothers react to being approached? The answers to these and other questions related to the effects of adoption as they appeared in a survey undertaken in the year 2000 are listed here. Presenting the individual perspective of birth mothers, adopted people and adoptive parents on what the adoption search and reunion experience has meant to them, the study then examines the reactions of matched pairs of adopted people and their birth mothers and adoptive parents.
