    I’m adopted, and I do love how you’ve been open with them. However, therapy should be a requirement as well. Adoptees grow up. They realize they were relinquished. Birthdays are hard, family tree assignments are hard, and no matter how much you love them, they will grieve. When old enough, the book the Primal Wound is an excellent resource ❀

    I love the fact that you care enough to learn abuout black hair care and not try to cut it off for convience. I have 3 biracial grandchildren and there mothers were so quick to cut their hair short to not bother with it or no moisture at all. I had to teach them as a black woman.❀

    It’s absolutely ridiculous to ask “white people to listen to black people.” We should listen to one another on an individual basis regardless of race. and teach our kids to judge by the content of character, not the color of skin. Police brutality affects all of us, because if they have the power to abuse people, all are in danger. I understand this was done in good intention but believe this is further aiding in the polarization of white people and black people in America. If you want to fight against police brutality, let’s talk about the loopholes of the police union, because that’s the real problem. On top of the CIA funneling drugs and guns in the black community, keeping black and poor people in jail. <<< on purpose. <<<< THIS is the conversation we need to have. But no I will not be teaching my children to “listen to black people” tf? Weird.

    OK I have to go cry you said heartbeats together. My adoptive mom didn't want me and didn't like me, and I'm 63 and I think the only bonds I know are trauma bonds.
