When is #adoption needed, and why is adoption needed, is absolutely the question society should be asking before assuming that a child needs to be removed 1st. 100 years later, #AdoptiveParents shouldn't wait until the #AdoptionReunion to be shocked.

Abortion, Adoption, Supply and Demand
There are vast resources for both obtaining birth control and facilitating adoption, yet one in five pregnancies still end with an abortion

One of the biggest topics for #Adoptees is being unable to obtain their #OriginalBirthCertificate.
I'm telling my #AdoptionReunion story in chronological order - one of the biggest topics that #AdoptiveParents would be surprised by when the time comes. Link in the description to learn more
Quote from Article: "But when I looked up how to retrieve your original birth certificate, the state of Massachusetts required a court petition, and that didn't guarantee you would receive it. I didn't know how I would react to not being able to obtain my own vital records."

#AdoptiveParents have to balance trying to figure out if what they're doing is right all the time with being prepared for questions that are beyond understanding! Feel free to join me while I talk about my #AdoptionReunion; I learned so much!

“As foreign demand rose and the revolutionary notion of a child’s right to remain with their birth family was suppressed,” Nolan writes, “the principle of the best interests of the child was defined in a straightforward way: material wealth.” As with much of the Global South, permanent international adoption came to supersede older, informal modes of mutual aid. Among many Indigenous groups, personal struggles—including with childcare—are shared by the community. But coerced adoptions only accelerate the dissolution of existing support systems: a textbook example of how colonial logic disrupts perfectly functional societies. Blame for children being transferred abroad—if cast at all—almost always landed on mothers. They were often called madres desnaturalizadas, or “denatured mothers,” by journalists.

I would like to think that things happen for a reason. It does not necessarily mean it is a good reason. People make choices and those choices affect the world and people around them. It is the but…
