Subject: BONDING: MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

I have not yet experienced the joy of child birth but, I have experienced the joy of bonding. My newphew was born April 7, 1985. One month later, I was taking care of his every need. I took care of him for the summer while my sister worked. During this period, we bonded; we also survived a fire together. Since May 1985, I have been an intrical part of his life. He is a Sophomore at UCA and he has grown into a well mannered young man. I am very proud of him! I believe that bonding between a mother and child begin prior to birth. If a child is adopted, I think the connection should occur immediately after birth for optimal development. Also, I think it is possible for adoptive parents to bond with a child past the infant stage.
