I am not fond of movies on Adoption or stories about adoption.

I am adopted! My adoption journey is different from most people My adoption is Kinship.

My adopted parents ask to care for me

They could not care for me at the time.

They didn't want me back.

I get annoyed when I hear the term that I was a gift.

Excuse me! I am not a possession . I am not a item.

I am not on the market for a couple who want a child.

I am a human being.

The fact that you adopted me instead of Abortion is not heretic.

Taking me and tearing me from my family and putting me in another family

is horrific.

It is called Trauma,

Payment for adoption is human trafficking.

Fundraising to afford to adoption?

When a mother who would like to keep their child.

Then there's kidnapping of children and putting them up for 2 or 3 times.

How can so much heartache make adoption beautiful and loving?

Yes Sometimes adoption is necessary. My question is are parents prepared for depression, drugs,identity issues , belonging.

Each adoption is different.

Meeting birth parents is not always the best solution!

It is not a fluffy puppy dog feeling!

Adjustments and bonding with a new family doesn't go smoothly.

In my case I struggled to bond. I was was expected to bond.

I wasn't with strangers. I was with family.
