What is it Like to be an Adopted Child?
Emma Stevens, author (The Gathering Place and A Fire is Coming) and US domestic adoptee from birth during the Baby Scoop Era, has survived layers of trauma throughout her life. She visits ReThreading Madness and delves into the reality that adoptees face struggling between being the good, adopted child in fear of being sent back and finding their own true selves whether it is around identity, biological family and background, or medical history. Whether you are an Adoptee, a Late-Discovery Adoptee, a Donor-Conceived child, or someone who has discovered that one of your presumed bio parents is in fact not through DNA or disclosure you will find this program of interest.
