What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is secular and highly metaphorical. While it mentions the night of birth, it focuses on the emotional arrival rather than biological details. It is inclusive of adoptive or foster situations by focusing on the 'arrival' into the parent's arms rather than the clinical act of labor.
