“Many adopted adults have profound identity issues, desire to be connected to our original families/cultures, and work toward preserving families to prevent others from losing what we have lost.

Adult adoptees are bombarded with questions about adoption. We are expected to provide our insights and emotional labor for free, then often dismissed and minimized for not further perpetuating the fairytale adoption narrative.
Stop and listen. Then go and do better.”
