''The Primal Wound: Understanding the Adopted Child'' is a book by American author Nancy Verrier published in 1993. The book posits that there is a "primal wound" that develops when a mother and child are separated by adoption shortly after childbirth. It describes the mother and child as having a vital connected relationship which is physical, psychological and physiological, and examines the effects of disrupting such bonds. The primary focus of the book is on the effects of adoption on the adoptee. A central theme is the assertion that all adoptees, even those adopted at birth, will retain memories of the separation from their birth mothers, and that regardless of the way the adoption is presented and handled by adoptive parents, these memories will have profound effects on the emotional and psychological well-being of the child and adult adoptee. == Cultural Acceptance == Judith and Martin Land, (2011), ''Adoption Detective: Memoir of an Adopted Child'', References p. 274, cite Nancy Verrier, ''The Primal Wound: Understanding the Adopted Child'' (1993) and ''Coming Home to Self'' as key references. Adoption Detective: Severing the connection with the birth mother causes a primal wound that manifests itself as a sense of loss, depression, mistrust, anxiety, genealogical bewilderment, and trouble in relationships with significant others. A loving set of adopted parents can help to heal the wounds. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Primal Wound」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
