- Parenting
Join adoptive parents and adoption coaches, Susan David and Gayle Swift, as they discuss observing National Adoption Month. As adoptive parents, we probably already think and talk a lot about adoption. And this month, we might even find ourselves sharing on social media smiling, happy photos. After all, adoption helped us build a family! Why wouldn't we be excited? But how would it be if our conversations acknowledged adopting from the adoptees' perspective and not just as adoptive parents? Adoption Attuned Parenting encourages us to do our part to talk about all aspects of adoption with our adopted children. We could also choose in this special month to spread awareness about adoption to our family, friends, and community so that they have a deeper understanding and empathy for our adoptees. Adoption does matter so let's talk about it!
