Reflection on adoption

I haven’t spent time writing anything on adoption and me as it seemed easier not think about it. Even when conversations have come round to children I tend to deflect or keep quiet. My friends I.R.L don’t have an adoption connection so it can be hard to mention anything particularly as my son and I don’t talk. One friend’s daughter has been approved to adopt and I know I can talk with this friend as she knows the basics. I’d rather be able to talk to someone even as an adoptive grandmother as it may help knowing that cut backs are happening with adoption support. It’s wrong as the children need as much support as possible.
