5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended for those adopting from China!, January 16, 2003

This review is from: Adopting From China - A Video Survival Guide [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I just viewed this video yesterday evening, and was extremely impressed. The video is well-organized and highly informative, even for those (like me) who already know quite a bit about China adoption. Ms. Nee provides some valuable suggestions for making the process (including the trip) easier and more enjoyable. Also included is Ms. Nee's extraordinarily moving first meeting with her daughter. Whether you're just thinking about adopting from China, have already made the decision, or are waiting for your referral, this video is quite worthwhile!

5.0 out of 5 stars A valuable resource for every adopting parent from China, September 14, 2002

This review is from: Adopting From China - A Video Survival Guide [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a must have video! Becky Nee covers everything from the need for adoption to the paperwork, packing, traveling to China and bonding with baby. My husband and I took tons of notes and learned many new things through this informative video. In fact we are going to show it to our parents so they can better understand their grandaughter and where she came from. We feel we are much better prepared for our adoption trip next month. Also, it was touching to see her personal story and the moment she received her new daughter. I highly recommend!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Adoption from China - A Survival Guide, September 13, 2002

By

This review is from: Adopting From China - A Video Survival Guide [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have had the wonderful opportunity to view this film. It is filled with lots of great ideas and suggestions and Becky's training and talent as a news anchor really shows through. There are a lot of heart-warming scenes that as a prospective parent I would have loved to have seen before traveling to China. This film takes a lot of the mystery out of the process and allows the viewer a sneak peek as to some of the things they might expect to experience on this journey even though the process can be a little different for each family.

It is a great comprehensive guide to adoption from China and well worth taking the time to watch! I know that I personally get more out of viewing something rather than reading about it. For me as a parent who has already been through the process it brought back a lot of memories even though the regulations and a lot of the procedures have changed since 1998 when Mikaylin came home. A good resource for prospective adoptive parents considering adoption from China.
