[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I adopted three times and never took the entire 12 weeks of FMLA. Just didn't work out that way for us. Thing is, the whole bonding issue is a lot more than how much time you take off. Sure, time is part of it. But, so is responding when your baby cries, having lots of physical contact, etc. There is no one way that is right. [/quote] Can you point to specific resources you relied on to help you, and how you structured work-life balance to ensure a solid bond in the beginning? I am extremely attached (some might say too much!) to my biological son but realize that forming that attachment with an adopted child will be differrent. [/quote]
