@RobertMSterling Out of curiosity what does their insurance cover?

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@lazy_hoor @IHateAdoption1 Someone who uses their #adopted child & dying dog to make themselves seem like saviors. Adoptive parents can't hear enough about how wonderful they are.

@decsmith50 This bill is a good first step in the right direction. It doesn't do nearly enough. Addl'y this bill won't make it anywhere the next few years. Still, we need to keep an eye on it & see what we can do to get it beefed up & passed. Contact your reps.

@JumpBackReality @Acyn Are we surprised? He can only get it up for Trump obviously.

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@blondel @tfd_jrdy @Acyn I think we can agree Trump still is a disgrace.

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@xmetal_godx @JasmineForUS Did you cash that check?

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@RpsAgainstTrump A pardon is totally unnecessary. Trump will never win. At least not legally. The GOP may lie & cheat to make their plastic president win. They'll do that pardon or not.

@AccountableGOP Vance hasn’t seen the evidence so who cares if he thinks Trump broke the law?

The Grand Jury DID see the evidence and they DO think Trump broke the law.
Actually, several laws.

@bpdmarcy420 @AnnaToccara I'm so sorry. I truly hope you can find healing and peace.

@adoptarticles @WinnieB1979 @vexashun I was wondering if parents of LDA's were more secretive. But I know people who found info their parents files after the parents died. Like anything, I'm sure there's all kinds of reasons.

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@WinnieB1979 @vexashun I am sure that's true but how is it that LDA's didn't ever find anything? I've met a few people who found they were adopted when going through documents after their parents had passed away. Maybe not all kids look like we do or maybe we're just more intentional?

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@bpdmarcy420 @AnnaToccara The answer to that is no. How could a woman give up a child and not suffer greatly. Every birth mother I've met has trauma. My own birthmother died from a slow form of su*cide.

@NorthTheMeadow @StatikCo Are any cords? Honest question. I always check my electrical cords for UL cert but for some crazy reason never checked my phone cords.

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@DarkRedFunny @StatikCo Frying? Fraying? Missing something here. The A.

So much for US Army Material.

Still this cord looks pretty good. But is it?

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@juneinapril @ndnadoptee Especially when there are people who treat their animals better than some people treat people.

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@WinnieB1979 @vexashun I was amazed and comforted when I found out that most adoptees were sneaking into their parents files all the time. I have to wonder if non adoptees were looking at their parents files all the time?

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@adptdchameleon @WinnieB1979 Even while Australia is apologizing, they're also trying to bring adoption back. With all the progress that's been made its disgusting. Here's to hoping they fail!!

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@WinnieB1979 @vexashun As a child I'd often sneak into my parents file cabinet to look at my adoption documents. With amazement and confusion, I'd examine my birth certificate. My adoptive parents were listed as my parents! I couldn't understand how it was possible when I knew it was a lie.

[My Shady Roots @myshadyroots]

@Skyphly That would be an excellent title! It's compelling to be sure. Wish we could attend.
