An adult adoptee and I talk about his film that documents his search for and reunion with his birth father, his relationship with his birth mother, and what he would tell adoptive parents who might be worried about opening contact.
This beautiful film does an excellent job of shedding light on the complexities of growing up adopted. Here's what stayed with me long after my tears had dried.
Everyone has something to say about being a mom, or not being a mom, or having a mom, or searching for your mom, or having two moms, etc. Why not share your story in a Listen to Your Mother (LTYM) show?
Inspired by Six-Word Memoirs and the book series The Best Advice in Six Words, by Larry Smith, I thought it would be interesting, inspiring, and all around great to solicit six words about adoption.
The journey that led me to become a mother through domestic adoption at age 45 began with infertility. But, since becoming a mom to my daughter, I have never looked back and don't hold onto the "infertile" moniker.
