This article considers adoption from the perspective of parents, especially the strategies that they employ to enhance attachments and build positive parent-child relationships. The article draws particularly on recent New Zealand research regarding intercountry adoptive parenting, as well as overseas literature on good adoptive parenting practice generally in domestic and intercountry adoption. It also considers the research on methods of supporting parents who adopt and whether there are gaps in legislation, policy or practice in New Zealand that could be closed by borrowing from good examples in the literature, and, or current practice examples. The author is an adoptive parent of Russian-born children and is actively involved in adoptive parent support networks.

ARETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF data from 11,000 preterm infants in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in the U.S. found that infants receiving H2 blockers such as Zantac, Tagamet, Pepcid, and Axid were more likely to develop necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).1 The study was funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). As a result of the findings of this study, Elias A. Zerhouni, MD, Director of the National Institutes of Health, issued a press release in February, 2006, stating, “This study strongly suggests that the current practice of prescribing H2 blockers to prevent or treat acid reflux in premature infants needs to be carefully reevaluated by all concerned in light of these new findings.”2
