Exchange Exemplar: Making An Overseas Adoption Work

Chris Darling/Wikimedia

Being a parent can induce moments of panic.  It can get far more complicated with an adopted child... especially one from another country and another culture. 

That was Claude Knobler's experience, when he and his wife brought an Ethiopian child into their home.  Nati was five years old when he got new parents and a whole new life. 

Claude Knobler tells the story in his book .  Claude joined us in February 2015, and we replay the interview here.
