During the past week, I’ve received several e-mails from people who have questions and comments about closed and open adoption. Thought I’d tackle their questions in a 5-part series I’m posting at my Christian Adoption blog on adoption.com.
I’ll provide hyperlinks to each post as they go live. Here’s the schedule:
- April 3 – Are people involved in closed adoption well-adjusted?
- April 4 – What does ‘moving on’ mean for birth mothers?
- April 5 – Should adopted kids be encouraged to have a relationship with their birth parents?
- April 6 – What if you reunite with your birth mother and she doesn’t live up to your expectations?
- April 7 – Should adoptive parents cut off contact with a drug-abusing birth mother?
One of my fellow bloggers at adoption.com posted her thoughts about closed adoption and explained why she, as an adoptive parent, chose closed adoption. Check out her post, called Why Closed Adoption.
