Adoption is not a one-time event but rather a lifetime of experiences, perspectives, and truths that can impact generations. In this deeply honest and necessary book, an adoptee, a birth parent, and an adoptive parent come together to illuminate the often unspoken realities of adoption. Drawing from their own journeys and interviews with adoptees, birth parents, adoptive parents, social workers, therapists, and allies, the authors reveal the complex emotions, challenges, and questions that surround adoption at every stage. Grounded in attachment science, rooted in a commitment to truth and transparency, and shaped by lived experience, this book offers vital insight and guidance for anyone affected by adoption.
