<\/a>This weekend I’ll be at the Council on Contemporary Families<\/a> 11th Annual Conference (April 25-26) in my sweet home Chicago, where I can’t wait to hang with all those CCFers board members I know and love–Virginia Rutter, Stephanie Coontz, Steve Mintz, and more. If in Chicago, come join me! I’ll be giving a workshop on blogging on Saturday (10:45-12:45), with the help of Veronica Aerrola, who prolifically blogs here<\/a>, here<\/a>, here<\/a>, and here<\/a>. My session’s aimed at researchers and therapists and is called “What You Need to Know about Blogging and Why.” <\/p>\n

Transnational Adoption the Right Policy for Parents? Children? Society?”<\/p>\n
