Because of the complexity of the Reshma's story and her take on adoption, both hosts wanted to take some time and delve a bit deeper into the topics that were discussed.

In This Episode of ADOPTION NOW

  • John DeYoung, a South Korean adoptee, shares his reactions to Reshma's story and talks about his own.
  • The importance of letting every adoptee establish their own voice and narrative.
  • Why noticing the adoptee and respecting their comforts and discomforts is essential for better parenting and communication.
  • The pitfalls of the 'hero mentality' for adoptive parents.
  • John talks about the practice of 'discovering your child' to fully respect them.
