Home School Book Review on “We’re All Not the Same, But We’re Still Family”

Having adopted both of our sons, I found that this book covers the exact questions and issues that were discussed in our pre-adoption training. The story was written for adoptive families to explore the benefits of adoption openness. In her “For Parents and Caregivers Only” at the back of the book, co-author Theresa Harris, a therapist and adoptive mother, warns, “Openness may not always be positive for families.” But when it is a positive experience, it can help to address the important themes of identity, attachment, grief, and loss that adopted children (and their parents) often have to deal with.

Find Your Way to Freedom Today!

If you were abused or neglected as a child, chances are that you have
been your whole life, whether you are a man, a woman, or a teen. Child
abuse so mangles the personality that the victim unconsciously attracts
abusers throughout the life cycle. Lies about yourself were planted
deep in your mind by the abuse, and you still believe them. They are
crippling your life! Do you have any of these signs?


  • You have symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
  • You feel like a second-class citizen.
  • Nobody understands: they ask, "Why can't you get over it?"
  • You have escaped one abuser only to end up with another.

Until you understand exactly what the abuse did to you, you cannot get
free. You can stay in therapy your whole life and never get a clue. OR
you can unravel the mysteries once and for all and bring everything to
light by reading AM I BAD? Recovering from Abuse. A great resource for
victims, therapists, and group work.

Therapists acclaim for AM I BAD?

"AM I BAD? is a tour de force of the tortured landscape of child abuse
and its pernicious long-term outcomes. This book is an important
contribution towards the edification of victims and institutions alike."

--Sam Vaknin, PhD, author Malignant Self-Love


"This book should be compulsory reading for anyone dealing with abused
children or abused adults, or adult survivors of childhood abuse."

--Robert Rich, PhD, M.A.P.S, A.A.S.H.
