Sow NG ,

adoption and other podcasts

there is some very good content in these podcasts. I’ve realised too late in life, that my friends discussed nothing about anything, and had no interest in my well being, other than events alcohol and jokes. We just never discussed anything that might have been any way useful in our future lives.

i don’t agree that there is shame associated with adoption. but i can understand why they say this.
