I often speak critically about adoption. That means I’m often called angry & bitter. I’ve worked thru a lot in therapy. I’m not bitter, but there’s a lot about adoption that makes me angry. That’s not a negative—nor is challenging the whitewashed industry rhetoric that defines #adoption in our society. It is vital. Not for me, but for young adoptees, bc there are so many who’ve been taught that their confusion, grief, anger, & longing is unacceptable. It’s not only acceptable, it’s REASONABLE. +
