What’s it like for an Adoptee to Search? (click here to share/read comments)2

Here's a great post on the blog Mia's Saving Grace about the frustration of closed adoption records. And how it affects adoptees trying to search for their roots.

So, if we open the records, and also consider that the infant that has been relinquished is aware and taking in the experiences involved in the adoption process…can we perhaps move the process forward by making it more respectful of that infant? More conscious? More compassionate and supportive to not only the birth mother, the future adult adoptee and the adoptive parents, but to the BABY?

I think so. 

Check out my ebook, "Strengthening Connections " to find out ways you can help your adopted infant adjust to life in your family.

Adoption Thoughts (click here to share your point of view)1

This recent post in a blog I just found moved me to tears.  Margie, you eloquently stated the concerns, feelings, and inner conflict those who have been touched by adoption face and experience.

Thank you.

One of my passions is bringing healing to the experience of adoption. I advocate for the babies as they move through their early experience and help parents understand how to support their babies grief and loss while they are still young. (see my ebook for sale on this issue).

I also work with adult adoptees with their early experiences.

I am grateful to people like you, who are dedicated to understanding adoption and all its facets.
