Families who adopt internationally often need assistance in determining which factors they need to consider when making educational decisions for their child, and they frequently seek guidance from their physician. Understanding how the education system functions, how it differs from the medical system, and how children who have been adopted internationally can succeed in school is important for health care providers, because this information helps parents in making proactive decisions for their children. Internationally adopted children have the best chance of maximizing their learning potential when medical and educational professionals work together to assist families as they plan for their child's education.
经常从国外收养孩子的家庭在为孩子做出教育决策时,往往需要帮助来确定他们需要考虑哪些因素,而且他们经常向医生寻求指导。了解教育系统如何运作、它与医疗系统有何不同,以及从国外收养的孩子如何在学校取得成功,这对医疗保健提供者来说很重要,因为这些信息有助于父母为孩子做出积极主动的决策。当医疗和教育专业人员共同努力,在家庭为孩子的教育做规划时给予协助,国际收养儿童就最有可能最大限度地发挥他们的学习潜力。
