how to tell an older child hes adopted

Check out my webpage in order to see my recently published children's book that addresses this issue.Just click on my name/profile,and then click on the profile for a full description of the book and a little more about my family. Let me know what you think. Stacie I am an adoptee,and I didnt find out that I was adopted by my father until I was 21.I would not advise not telling him,as it hinders prper emotional development/identity issues may result.Perhaps,this is one rreason why I became a therapist and an adoptive mother.I encourage you to tell him soon,but realize it really is a celebration for everyone.
