| 10/4/24 | ![]() 509: Supporting Your Adoptee Through the Adoptee Consciousness Model | When our adoptees are young, we cannot anticipate how and when they will process their adoptedness someday as adults.

| 9/6/24 | ![]() 508: How to Center the Adoptee as the Hero in Their Own Story | In a previous episode of Adoption: The Long View (ep505), an adoptee noted that her parents are the center of their adoption story just as she is the center of hers.

| 8/2/24 | ![]() 507: Robyn Gobbel on Dealing with Big Baffling Behaviors | One of the myths of adoption is the now debunked “blank slate” theory that if you get your baby early enough, they won’t have experienced any trauma. And therefore, you won’t be raising a child with a trauma history, and you won’t be dealing with big,... | 52m 30s | ||||||
| 7/5/24 | ![]() 506: More Facets of Adoption Math with Adoptee Torie DiMartile (Part 2) | In this much anticipated episode, we resume our conversation with adoptee and adoption educator Torie DiMartile on adoption math that adoptees have to deal with, the worlds they must precariously straddle throughout their lives, the opposing emotions the... | 41m 51s | ||||||
| 6/7/24 | ![]() 505: The Many Facets of Adoptee Math | We all know from 1st grade math that a half plus a half equals 1. But for adoptees, the math doesn’t always add up the way we think it will. At one time I thought that if I could just incorporate my children’s first families into ours, then Tessa and Re... | 37m 33s | ||||||
| 5/3/24 | ![]() 504: 22 Years of Lessons Learned from Two Moms in One Open Adoption | The moment you become a parent, time seems to stop and you can’t see beyond the sweet baby or toddler you have before you, looking up at you with those big eyes that say you are everything. Those days of full dependence on you feel like they may go on fore... | 48m 15s | ||||||
| 4/5/24 | ![]() 503: A Deeper Look into Adoption and the Bible | My new book Adoption Unfiltered, has three chapters in it devoted to religion and adoption, with my co-authors and I each researching and covering a chapter. Sara Easterly, an adoptee and a Christian, wrote about religion’s pain points for adoptees. Kelsey... | 43m 11s | ||||||
| 3/1/24 | ![]() 502: Exploring the Full Range of Adoptee Emotions | Early in my adoptive parenting days, when my kids were first becoming able to talk about their adoptedness and continuing through their adolescence, I was on alert for signs that adoption had hurt them. I’d been listening to adult adoptees and I knew that... | 37m 48s | ||||||

| 10/6/23 | ![]() 408: The Dance of Adoptive Parenting: When to Lead & When to Follow | One of the distinctions we continually make here on Adoption: The Long View is the difference between "open adoption" and "openness in adoption." The former typically means having some sort of information about or contact with birth family, but the latte... | 41m 11s | ||||||
| 9/1/23 | ![]() 407: What My Adoptive Parents Did - and Didn't - Do Well | So many parents end up wishing they'd had a time machine to go back and know earlier what we didn’t know then about parenting, which is the whole premise of this podcast – to take the long view. With adoptive parenting, that wish can be even stronger, be... | 54m 34s | ||||||
| 8/4/23 | ![]() 406: Talking About Race with Adoptees | Parenting a child of a race different from yours adds a whole new element to adoptive parenting.

| 6/2/23 | ![]() 405: How to Be a Therapeutic Adoptive Parent | If you’ve been listening here long, you know that to believe that adoptive parenting is no different from regular old parenting will likely end up with you feeling blindsided some day, without tools and without strategies. This is because all adoptions... | 48m 56s | ||||||
| 5/5/23 | ![]() 404: Guilt, Shame, and Boundaries in Adoption | One thing we know is that adoption comes out of a broken attachment, that the baby or child we parent has already lost something primal, that biological connection to the first mother, as well as the genetic connection to her and to the baby’s first fa... | 52m 11s | ||||||
| 4/7/23 | ![]() 403: Why an Adoptee's Truth Matters More than a Parent's Comfort | Why are truth and trust so important in adoptive families? In all families, really?

| 3/3/23 | ![]() 402: YES to Continuing Education for Adoptive Parenting & NO to Adoption Echo Chambers | Adoptive parenting has this in common with regular old parenting: just when you start to feel like you’ve mastered a stage, like babyhood, toddlerhood, tweenhood, or beyond, your child keeps growing and enters a new stage. And you’re back at square one... | 28m 12s | ||||||
| 2/3/23 | ![]() 401: An Adoptee, Birth Mom, & Adoption Professional All in One | There are very few people who have the multi-perspectives and lived experience in adoption that Rebecca Ricardo has.

| 9/30/22 | ![]() 308: The Challenges of Transracial Adoptive Parenting | Parenting is a Big Deal. But adoptive parenting? Well, that brings a whole other layer to plain old parenting.
