You have a close friend who wishes to adopt a baby. However, the adoption agency has told her that it is unlikely that she will be able to adopt a newborn

She and her husband are
apprehensive about continuing with their plans for adoption because they fear that if they do
not know their infant from birth, they will not be able to establish a good parent-infant bond.
What have you learned about parent-infant bonding, specifically, that might be reassuring to
your friend?
What will be an ideal response

Good essays will point out that the parent-infant bond is not dependent on contact
immediately at birth. Humans are much more variable with regard to the age and
circumstances of bonding.
