Family is complicated even when you're not adopted, so what does it mean to us? What about birth parents? Siblings??? Let's talk about it!
What is culture like for adopted people? In this episode we talk about culture (or the lack of it) and discuss ways we feel disconnected from certain things as adopted people. We also explore why it's important for parents to be proactive about these discussions.
Being adopted can cause a lot of confusing feelings, so in episode two we discuss different things we've felt about our own adoption and why it's important to acknowledge them.
