The science is pretty clear that adoption is trauma. It is classified as an ACE. Adoptees are less than 4% of the population but make up 16% of serial killers and mass shooters. We are 400% more likely to die by suicide. The stats are staggering.

Severance now considers fiction by adoptees, NPEs, and MPEs. Here's the first piece, a flash piece by Lisa Franklin. severancemag.com/the-acciden…

My article in the Dobbs decision special issue in Adoption and Culture where I discuss being adopted, having an abortion, and why it's bullshit that folks claim adoption is a reproductive choice. #adopteetwitter

To commemorate Adoptee Remembrance Day 2022, we recorded a live event with the Adoptee Voices writing groups and ten adoptee writers who are sharing a collection of their poetry and prose with us. #AdopteesOn #ARD2022 #AdopteeVoices traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeso…

Poof! Starting today, all Massachusetts-born adopted people have a right to obtain their own preadoption birth records, no donut holes, no muss. Here's how it works and how to apply. adopteerightslaw.com/new-mas…

In case there were any questions about who is a party to an adoption. #adopteetwitter
ALT Screenshot of Alabama Code Section 26-10A-2, definitions. Number 10 states "PARTIES IN INTEREST. The adoptive parents and the natural parents unless the rights of the natural parents have been terminated or relinquished for purposes of adoption then the agency that has custody becomes a party in interest. This phrase does not include the adoptee."

Don't support the $$$ the adoption industrial complex. This is propaganda. Pregnant women are not told the truth about the lifelong trauma and grief they & their child will endure if they relinquish. Support not separate. @SOSadoption savingoursistersadoption.org

Today @corsent walks us through some of the best strategies he’s used to challenge the traditional adoption narrative. He also shares the importance of adoptees listening to the stories of others who have experienced severance from their family of origin. traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeso…

"Foster-to-adopt" is a marketing scheme made up to lure prospective adoptive parents into the child welfare system with the carrot of adoption when the stated goal of foster care is reunification with the family of origin. The opposite of adoption. #Fostertoadopt #FosterCare

To review: the #1 reason people lose their children to adoption is because they do not have enough material resources. Instead of routing resources to people who need them, we happily fund and subsidize people, typically with more race and class privilege, to raise them instead.

A larger sample from multiple studies would make these findings more compelling, but this research found that 91% of women who delivered their full term baby chose to parent rather than relinquish.

Respect and equal access for adopted people and birth mothers, truth and transparency. The narrative needs to change.

I am so excited to share “Relinquished” with the world. The privilege and obligation of stewarding these women’s stories is one I have carried for years, and I feel it intimately. I can’t wait for you to read these stories.

Hardly. There are far more (3-5K adopter wanna-bes) than there are ‘available’ newborns to adopt. It’s no one’s responsibility to supply people unable to have their own children with the babies of others. @SOSadoption
