It's a tough read for an adoptive parent. Believe me, I know. I've been stuck on Chapter 2 for awhile now.I have so many questions as I read through this controversial book: questions I'd like to ask adult adoptees; musings I have for first parents; wonderings I have for other adoptive parents. With this Book Tour, I'll have a chance to ask these questions.
As will you, if you're so inclined.
What the heck am I talking about? Over on the Open Adoption Examiner page, I am hosting a Book Tour of Nancy Verrier's The Primal Wound. So far, 11 adoptees, 7 first parents, and 7 adoptive parents have signed up to participate. There are only 17 spots left.
Would you like to spend National Adoption Month reading this book, too?

If you're so inclined.

I read it before, but I signed up anyway - hope that's OK, because I'd like to participate in the discussion.
I'm kind of afraid to read it. But maybe I should.
Part of me wants to read the book, part of me doesn't.
I don't know if I am up for a book tour right now, but I am always willing to answer questions from my perspective as an adult adoptee.
You're stuck on Chapter 2? Oh boy, I better get my hands on this book pronto.
I am looking forward to hearing more about this. I wonder how it relates to a child grown in her mother's womb but without that genetic connection. Is the primal wound going to a stranger after birth or not growing up with genetic parents?
