CHALLENGES IN SCHOOL ADAPTATION AMONG ADOPTED CHILDREN
Journal Title: Problems of Psychology in the 21st Century - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
The essential, if not the dominant part of a child’s life, takes place in the school environment as well as an adult’s life is spent at work. Therefore, a good relationship at school community and academic achievements are important for a child’s general psychological well-being. In addition, aspiration to estimate a child’s success on its progress at school is traditional. Perhaps, the most popular questions a child is asked by adults are the ones like, ”How are you doing at school?”, ”How is your study?”, "What are your favorite subjects?", etc.
