My daughter once started writing a book called “Why I fired my dad”. You’re allowed to fire a parent that has purposely harmed you. They do not earn the title of parent. Their title now is perpetrator.

People that think adoption is only wonderful, ignore the trauma of adoptees and their mothers, and use handmaid’s tale dehumanizing language like ‘donators’ should not be caring for children needing external care and prove why the adoption industry needs to change. #adopteevoices.

Abusers do not suddenly change due to illness or age and they certainly don’t when they are finally caught. Most abuse to the bitter end and will even use their death as one more chance to manipulate, abuse, and avoid accountability. Their actions are 100% their responsibility.

Daily reminder: Don’t tell a survivor what they should’ve done - you don’t know what they ‘should’ve’ done. #respectsurvivors.

“The truth is, you are the expert in your own life. No one else knows what you lived through. No one else understands the choices you faced or the risks you calculated.”.

People do not like it when survivors speak up and that is especially true for adoption survivors. #adopteevoices #listentosurvivors.

I made a post about how many adoptee’s worth is tied to how much they love their adoptive parents and an adoptive mom countered with a response that was all about her and basically proved my point. #itsnotaboutyou #adopteevoices.

What many survivors, and people with chronic medical conditions, learn is that the doctor’s office is not a safe place.

One of the most shocking things about finding my family is how much they are like me because I grew up around people who were nothing like me. #adopteevoices.

Uniquely adoptee experience - holding your breath while the person on the phone for the first time tells you your parent’s name, date of birth, where they live, and that they are alive. It’s not okay to do this to anyone. It’s not beautiful-it’s trauma. #adopteevoices #adoption.

“You shall not lie” taught so many parents lying to their adopted child about the most important thing….#adopteevoices #adoption #latediscoveryadoptee.

“The problem wasn’t that you weren’t worth defending - the problem is we have a system that does not defend and protect survivors.”.#believeprotectdefend.

So many people try to ‘fix’ a survivor or help them ‘heal’. Then when that doesn’t ‘work’ they walk away and say “well I tried”. When all along what the survivor needed was not to be ‘fixed’ or ‘healed’ but to be listened to and to have someone ‘be’ with them and understand them.

We don’t have an anxious generation and a mental health epidemic because of cell phones. We have a generation that had their traumas minimized, stigmatized, and they live with fear in places they were told were safe.

Uniquely adoptee experience: being so happy to be able to give your doctor your family medical history. #adopteevoices #adopteerights #reunion.

I’ve seen people be really mean on these platforms but some of the meanest I’ve seen are those defending adoption to adoptees. #adoption #adopteevoices.

When a mother is coerced into relinquishing her child and told her baby will be better off with a two parent loving home - what they’re really saying is your child will be better off with strangers. #adoption #coercion #adopteevoices.
