Supporting the well-being of other adoptees who may be struggling. Channel is made by me, foster child/adoptee, after decades of believing non adopted people: I should be grateful, how lucky I am, and thatās it for adoption. I studied since I was little trying to find out why I felt "Off" like I was living a lie, I gave up many times, NO ONE could tell me what was truly going on, it comes down to one simple thing; GRIEF from the losses that adoption commonly denies. Adoption CAN be an incredibly great thing, but it commonly denies so many losses people never see or talk about. Being separated from mother at birth, real birth certificate, real name, medical records, genetic mirroring, race & culture by being raised by well meaning but uneducated white parents, legally not being able to see biological family as a child. Life of many adoptees can be extremely isolating, but can be helped If the proper education is learned by adoptive parents of what is going on. If they want to listen.
