An adult adoptee and adoption expert gives parents explicit permission, no, exhorts them to drop the “adoptive” modifier and be their children’s parents. She makes it clear that you don’t do this by ignoring your child’s history or birth parents, hiding his story from him — or sharing it as if it were your own. Knowing that she can’t speak for every adoptee, above all, she urges parents to listen to and take cues from their children.
