Not everyone's adoption story has started well or ended well.

I am aware of the misuse of explaining adoption.

A gift, beautiful!


Adoption is trauma whether or not it is Kinship or public adoption.


A lot of adoptees feel this way.
I know that I have been there.

There comes a time when I move past the feelings of Resentment!

As

My closest friends get it.
My husband gets it.
I have learned to stick with people who get it.

It takes a while to convince people to think differently.


I have also learned that some people just don't get it.


It is a wasted effort to try and make people agree!


I know that anger and hostility drives people away from an adoptee and a non adoptee .


I cringe when I hear the hostility in a adoptees voice.


My question is: will hostility educate the non adoptee?

Do any good?

I know from the frustration that I have of being told

Gift?

Beautiful!


It isn't effective! Blasting a person


I share my thoughts! I keep my Resentment at bay.

It will Destroy me as a person!


Being angry drains you of being the person ,we are meant to be.


Yes my beginnings started off rough. I just have so much to be thankful for.


Yes I know my truth, I have planned to bloom where ever I am at.


Reconsider your approach! to explaining Adoption
