A Family for Every Child-perspectives on adoption in India By Brajesh Mishra Kindle Edition A Family for Every Child perspectives on adoption in India This book is developed with the objective of promoting the concept of adoption in India. There are 12.4 million destitute children in India and yet only about 3000 legal adoptions happen in a year! There are certainly many reasons for this startling fact…but is this justified? Can we as parents, as people who are mobilizing ourselves to become a super, liberalized economy really afford to close our minds to this picture? Adoption in India is mired by red tape, poor social acceptance, illegal practices and many misconceptions about the process itself. These issues and many other questions is what the book covers right from the causes behind this dismal scenario to actual case stories of adoption and various organisations involved in this cause. This book presents a picture of the still not so used word “adoption” in India. The book caters 1)social and child welfare workers and interested individuals2)the many interested but unsure couples/aspiring parents who want a baby, but are not aware of the process/implications/issues involved2)parents who have already adopted and are seeking some answers4)adoptees themselves Adoption is one of the best forms of rehabilitating a destitute child.
