Happy #TartanDay ! I have known I'm part of the Scots-Irish Burns sept of the Campbell clan for just over a year, after 40 years of secrecy. #Adoptees have a right to know their families and their histories. Make it legal for us to know who we are! #AdoptionIsTrauma #AdopteeRights

Just for fun, here's my father (l) & me (r), side by side. He was about 30 in his pic, I was about 15 in mine. Pretty wild, no?

(A surfboard had broken my nose a cpl of wks b4 this pic was taken, but normally, we had/have the same nose.) #adoption #adopteevoices #adopteerights #adoptoverse #DNAmatters

Adoption Is Political - Orphans? Or "orphans"? What's the problem, anyways?

"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. The orphan discourse (& the resulting confusion about the actual numbers of orphans worldwide) reflects market demand for children, not children's actual need for care."

"No intoning of words or signing of papers or, indeed, a lifetime of attentive & loving care, has the power to make or unmake kinship relations." This is a fundamental truth. & the linked piece is an absolute Must Read. #adoption #adopteevoices #adopteerights #adoptoverse https://open.substack.com/pub/corsent/p/unattached?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
