katdrewicz 's review for:
As an adoption competent therapist and transracial adoptees myself, I appreciated hearing a different side of adoption that is not often discussed. Of course, as the author mentioned, this is not every adoptees’ experience of adoption. However, as seen in my own work, it is many adoptees’ lived experiences. Unfortunately, many adoptees do not have a space to talk about these complicated thoughts, feelings, and experiences, because they are worried about being “ungrateful” or hurting loved ones. We cannot deny that loss is at the heart of every adoption, so we must validate the stories of adoptees who are navigating this emotional wound in various stages of their life.
