[quote=Anonymous]One thing to note, just because you reject a meme that says “adoption is love” does not mean you are anti adoption. I am a pro adoption, adoptive parent but I sort of hate those silly slogans because I understand that adoption is complex and is often rooted in a sad situation. Just like I hate when people say my daughter is lucky ... actually I’m the lucky one. Adoption is not a fairy tale but I certainly don’t believe all adoptees are damaged. I also think some adoptive parents try so hard to be woke that the go too far talking about the pain of adoption. There is no single universal experience. If you are seriously considering adoption, try to educate yourself beyond the superficial “adoption is love” etc [/quote]
