N2  - Adoption process is viewed as integral and very important part in today's social fabric. In recent years number of adoptions in Poland is in decline. However, there are still many families, deciding to take the challenge of this very demanding, although rewarding task, where welfare of a child is a principle goal. Child raising by an adoptive family is considerably more complex, than by biological parents, and requires additional effort to overcome emotional difficulties, sometimes on both sides. Main purpose of our work is providing exposure to the mental disorders in adopted children. Current literature on the subject depicts many of the aspects of this problem as multiple categories in ICD-10. Early or late symptoms of orphan's syndrome can take a form of physical, mental and emotional development deficiency, and also depression, behaviour and personality disorders. Children bom with FAS have long-term effects tend to intensify as children move into adulthood. Adolescent from adopted families exhibit susceptibility to affective disorders and inclination to substance dependence (SUD), in greater frequency they attempt to commit suicide. Eating disorders can be attributed to the exposure to various forms of violence. It needs to be emphasized that many cases of children requiring psychiatric care, including hospitalisation, come from adopted families.<p /> <p>Language: pl</p>
