Melissa's Perspective
Adopted at birth, Melissa shares very openly and vulnerably about her experience as an adoptee. She shares her perspective on all kinds of things - many of which you may be wondering about, but also things you may have never considered. Some of the topics we cover are: * What she appreciates that her parents did for her. * Dealing with unknown medical history. * How she's experienced other people's views of adoption * Her desire to know her biological family * Ways of interacting with adopted children that are hurtful * The best thing her parents did for her. * Why you should never hide information about adoption from your child * How trauma impacted her childhood and adulthood * How to talk to your kids about being adopted * and more! Subscribe to be notified when Part 2 is posted. Part 2 will be an interview with Nikko, a young man who spent time in foster care.
