Abstract
⺠43 children adopted as preschoolers were interviewed in middle childhood. ⺠Interviews explored children's understanding and feelings about adoption. ⺠Almost all children felt integrated in their adoptive families. ⺠Children's feelings about their birth family and about adoption varied widely. ⺠Children need information and time to talk about adoption.
