Adoption. In my last two programmes I talked about the incredible biolological changes that happen in the biological parents of a newly conceived child and that keep on going through to their child’s early, even teen years.
Not every biological couple can have children though, and these days same sex couples are also allowed to adopt children.
Adoption’s a great way to go if you want children and can’t have them naturally yourselves. But there’s a massive problem that comes with adoption, for the adopted children, and that means for the adopting parents too, and I should start the programme there.
