Thank you for reading and responding. Adoption should only occur as a last resort for a child in need, when the possibility of remaining with biological family is impossible. It should never be used as a cure for infertility. I hope you consider that perspective when making your choice. As a start, I suggest searching through the hashtag #adopteevoices on Twitter and Instagram; reading The Primal Wound by Nancy Verrier, American Baby by Gabrielle Glaser; and watching Wonder Boy on Netflix. Thank you for understanding that our voices matter most, adoption is not a one time act, and being an adoptee lasts a lifetime. We are the experts.
