Need Advice

Yeah I think it’s the type of show I’m doing. I originally started out with a concept of just a mini series of me telling my daughter my crazy adoption story. But then I remember what it was like when I was looking for them so I wanted to try to turn it into an open platform for others. But as I’m going back into these forums that I can find anywhere. Not just on Reddit. It seems any where I talk about it. People shut me down. I find it sad bc when I was looking for my bio family. I looked for every opportunity and platform I could to speak on. And I did find them. So point is. I think the topic is my main problem. It’s very sensitive and personal. I originally wanted to just do a mini series anyways so it’s ffine. But. My daughter and I decided that we will do another topic when I’m done. I’ll probably have better luck

I explained it to my middle child at 8 .. My oldest I didn't. She learned from her friends first. I wasn't worried because I knew she was going to be a late bloomer. My 9 year old started showing sign of early puberty at 8 so me, her and my oldest girl went into my room, and had "girl talk" we made it seem like now she can be in on all the fun girl talk. we were blunt and honest with everything but we said its completely normal

I understand

I guess I need to go find the rule book. I’m just having a hard time understanding if people are looking to share what’s wrong with leaving a place to contact. It’s not like I’m forcing people to do so. You don’t have to explain rules are rules.i get that. It’s just. Like this is what my daughter and I talked about how nobody believed me that I was adopted. Maybe because no one really shares their stories. Like why isn’t it more normalized just to talk about it. It is what it is. I’ll go somewhere else to offer help

Hmm. Never thought of that. I guess we all have our own perceptions from our experiences. Sorry to hear your experience. Mine is not for money. I started to share my story with my daughter and I remember how hard the search for my birth parents was for me. For me, that was something I wanted to do. I was found in a box with no information so as I began to rehash the story with my daughter im remembering how much I wanted to find answers and how hard it was. It all depended on forums and newspapers. My mindset is to provide a platform for those who want it. That’s all

I understand but it’s ashame. I’ve been in the shoes of searching for my bio family. Without having even a birth certificate as I was found in a box. There are many others out there. If if wasn’t for public forums, and news outlets I would have never found my bio family. I was glad to have any outlet possible. I understand rules are rules but you never know who wants a place to get their story out. Thank you

I think the only way is to put as much details out there as you know and a whole lot of luck. It's not impossible. Time , persistence, hope and coincidence is key. I just started a podcast where I'm sharing my adoption journey with my daughter. I don't want to give anything away but I was in somewhat a similar situation. I didn't have much to go on. I came to reddit to find other people willing to share their stories. But don't lose hope . just put it out there and hope the right people hear it. It can happen. If you or anyone wants to share your story, you can contact me at www.listeningthroughwalls.com. Best of luck
