humble themselves to say I’m sorry. It requires humility and feeling. I say it often and I’m sincere. We
#adopteerealtalk have discussed how quick we are to say I’m sorry. I’ve apologized and often don’t hear it back. They will also not say I forgive you when I’ve askedPrikaži ovu nit -
I’ve never been so hopeful. I set aside this day to figure s#%^ out . Knowledge is power. Internal and external growth today. Now I am armed with so much knowledge and power
I feel incredible. Invincible ! Like #WonderWoman

#AdopteeRealTalk I would like 2 see some parents raising money 2 help adult adoptees gain their citizenship just like when they raise money 4 the cute little babies. I guess we R not that cute now & the luster has worn off. We have every right as a natural born child 2citizenship -
A8: What I would love is for ICWA to no longer be challenged. Let’s keep Native and Indigenous families together.

A8: Pass the Adoptee Citizenship Act (X100), adoptees need to assert our rights to be heard and treated as experts of adoption, grant adoptees access to OBCs, stop abuse & re-homing, screen adoptive parents better, ensure APs are ready & educated for adoption

A8: It's honestly up to us as adopted people to continue speaking up and advocating for our community. We have to persevere and support each other as we endure the pushback.

A8: A good start, at least in the USA, would be passage of the Adoptee Citizenship Act.

#AdopteeRealTalk A7: I want to let go of shame/guilt when I think I'm not culturally Asian/Viet enough or don't explain I'm an adoptee in Asian spaces. I want to feel proud of being a Viet adoptee, or make space for non-Korean adoptees. I've got enough to do in 2020 w/o all this https://twitter.com/snbatman/status/1216886322834616320 … -
A7: I hope to be able to keep building a platform for adoptee writers and speakers by being a supportive editor (
@PlanAMag ) and/or mentor. I hope that I can keep my own mental health in place where I can do this.#AdopteeRealTalk https://twitter.com/Adoptees4Just/status/1216885893211967489 …

A6: My hope is that Adoption stops becoming a fad. Having a child of color is not a trend or a fad. Adopt a child because you are ready to love and nurture that child as if it came from you loins.

A6- <3 this question. My hope is that our movement and cause will be mainstream. Ppl will openly acknowledge that adoption means loss & trauma. No more viral adoption videos! I All records are unsealed. Deported adoptees come home & are given reparations.

A6: Passage of
#HR2731 and more discerning eyes on adoption! I want to see adoptee voices continue to grow and have adoptees looked to more on issues of family, adoption, racial, social, and restorative justice.#AdopteeRealTalk https://twitter.com/Adoptees4Just/status/1216883880013127681 …

I'm not going to lie, I'm researching and coming across
#BlackAdopteeVoices and wondering why the heck their voices aren't amplified too.#TheDailyAdoptee#adopteerealtalk#BeingAdoptedMeans#adopteevoicesPrikaži ovu nit -
I see that pro-lifers are still thinking adoption is a founding point to their arguement so here's a reminder. You can't take away a woman's right to choose so someone else can 'buy' a family. That's forced surrogacy.

Reading the
#AdopteeRealTalk chat responses. Bummed that I missed the chat. But HAPPY to see the#adoptee community online centering our voices.#NAAM#nationalADOPTEEawarenessmonth -
A3: I have recently begun openly expressing grief over the loss of my ethnic culture in our conversations.

A10: Not leaving a single adoptee behind in regards to citizenship

For the next
#AdopteeRealTalk Twitter chat: would love to talk about specific identities/intersections, domestic vs. international adoptions, capitalism and the business of adoption, and decolonizing adoption come to mind. Anyone else have any thoughts to add? https://twitter.com/Adoptees4Just/status/1199128384355360769 …

A10: I think a lot about citizenship as an adoptee because to me, citizenship is the ultimate sign of belonging. I'm an immigrant, and my mom's family is a family of immigrants as well. To me, living our values as a country means welcoming.
