Idea for education, eh? In honor of new & RTing followers @thornhillmom @YummyDaddydiary @UnitedFamilyInc

@UrbanScoutMag @TheView Hit nail on head, imo! Misplaced anger or whatever. Also, what is the DEAL about the presumption that the entire world stays atop Jada's medical situation?! That in itself is so narcissistic. I'm pretty pop-culture aware, and I missed that memo.

Returning to near fulltime work in my former journalist profession has meant a *slow* rollout of this 25th anniv collection, today required I dig deep and give you this tiny, timeless essay that captures so much of many adoptees' experience. https://t.co/Y7dDoAquIj

Has any woman throughout history *wanted* to get pregnant, carry her baby for 9 months, then give her child away to others to raise? Even if #adoption is in her mind, a pregnant woman is a mother... period. https://t.co/ul3GtfUBkd

[Parenting For Peace @MarcyAxness]

"It doesn't matter how you got here, just that you're here." NO! Children instinctively care about how they ended up in their family. It grounds them, helps them feel real, and feel...here. #Adoptees often miss these origin stories. https://t.co/L7OGZxUv4l

"The Primal Wound: Separation Trauma IS Trauma...At Any Age" discusses the cultural mythology in #adoption that babies can be separated from mothers without fallout. https://t.co/K4GQlgyaj0

It's not just a single moment. #Adoption reunion is a lifelong process. But yes, that first meeting is indeed monumental. Here's the story of mine. https://t.co/YDpCc6M3GV

[Parenting For Peace @MarcyAxness]

Which #adoption slogans did you grow up with, or have you heard? What is it they say? The road to hell is paved with good intentions. So fitting here... https://t.co/O3pC477Tsc
