Stories can help adoptive parents see adoption from a different perspective. Whether through memoirs, books, articles or personal accounts, they can open up new ways of understanding a child’s experiences and create opportunities for more thoughtful conversations at home.
Join host Eddie Elliott as he speaks with Lisa Mainwaring, a journalist, writer, communications professional and adoptive mum of two boys.
Together, they discuss the value of reading different lived experiences and how stories can help parents approach conversations about adoption with greater curiosity and empathy.
This episode offers practical insight for parents who want to learn from the experiences of others and use stories as a starting point for more open conversations about adoption.
