The family reunion [for my adoptive family] is this weekend. The last time I attended a reunion was probably in 2007. I got married in 2008. I never had a spouse or boyfriend or friend to attend with me. Cousins within my age bracket rarely ever attended & if they did, they either hid away reading a book or were very much better than I at small talk, connecting with distant relatives they probably won't see again till next year. My grandmother was alive & I attended most of the reunions with her. I wanted to. Reunions were typically held at a state park where I could go on brief walks, hikes, play with a camera without making others [or me] feel weird. Late last year, I learned I have biological half-siblings... I'm not going to the a-family reunion this year, though it's been years... it somehow seems so wrong that I would be attending yet another family reunion without my siblings.

I’ve always wondered how much you have to hate children to wish them born to ppl who don’t love or want them. #ProChoiceIsProLife #AbortionIsEssential #AdopteeVoices

w/ loss. Every single one. No baby/child becomes available for adoption w/o being legally severed from its mother, family, identity. Those losses are profound, & no matter what comes after, THERE'S NOTHING BEAUTIFUL ABOUT LOSING ONE'S FAMILY. /end #AdopteeVoices #AdopteeMastodon

Thank you for sharing! As an adoptee who is also pro-choice, I identify with this. While I have never had an abortion, I have taken the morning after pill twice. I have gone with friends to support them to get an abortion.

6/6 another person’s LITERAL labor.
I'm a pro-choice adoptee. I'm pro-choice, pro-health, pro-sex, pro-family & pro-life. I am NOT a tool for anti-choicers & their twisted agenda. /end

"Blood is thicker than water."
I've heard that all my life--but somehow that seems to apply only to those who aren't adopted. When it comes to adoptees like me, our hypocritical society spins on a dime, & suddenly, DNA isn't important at all. So I'm going to end #NAAM with my (admittedly provocative) response to society's dismissal of my need to know who the fck I am. #adoption #AdopteeVoices
-
Today, for #NAAM , I'll share something I've been wondering about for decades. How does anyone expect a child to grow--much less thrive--without roots?
I spent 50 yrs of my life rootless. Completely untethered. To me, that's obscene. #adoption #AdopteeVoices

What I posted is a FB message sent out by Rebecca "Call Me Becca!" Gruenspan at RG Adoption to make sure everyone knew they were holding a Baby Sale for Black Friday weekend! & really, who doesn't love a discount baby?!? #NAAM #adoption #BabiesForSale #BuildYourFamilyWithDiscountBabies #AdopteeVoices https://rgadoptionconsulting.com

I have bad news if you've been thinking about adopting. Looks like you just missed the Black Friday baby sales! Yesterday was your last chance to get $500 off your new dishwasher, OOPS, I meant to say "baby"--your new baby! Guess you'll have to wait until next year. #adoption #NAAM #BabiesForSale #BuildYourFamilyWithDiscountBabies #AdopteeVoices

Question for adoptees: At what point do you consider your Ancestry matches to be safe to add to your tree?
I know it really mucks things up if one adds to their tree all willy-nilly, but what info do you need to confirm that X is who Ancestry is saying they are & how do you go about proving that for yourself? Thanks in advance.

Coming out of the adoption fog—leaving behind fear, obligation, guilt—was a long, complicated, beautiful journey.

don't think ppl who adopt ever get what they expect. They rarely get what they want. But most of them get what they deserve." She never brought the subject up again.
I still believe that's true. /end

One of the most profoundly beautiful poems I've ever read. It expresses sentiments I hold ever so dear--but sadly, can only express clumsily. Oh, to have a fraction of this poet's talent! #NatureVsNurture #NationalDNADay #adoption #adopteevoices https://nurtureliterary.com/post/691359549388668929/would-you-rather

It's National DNA Day!
I'm #adopted , so until I had my #DNA tested by 23andMe, AncestryDNA, & FTDNA, I had no idea who or what I was. My adopters told me I was French. Turns out, I'm #Basque , #Finnish , #Norwegian , a little #Irish , a little #English .
Do you know your ethnicity? I find the subject fascinating--prolly bc I was always denied my most fundamental truths re: ancestry & heritage. If you'd like to share, I'd love to hear your story. #NationalDNADay #adoption #AdopteeVoices

"Adoption also isn't driven by children w/o families; it's driven by the desires & demands of unrelated strangers to add those children to their own families.
