📝Some Takeaways
➡️ Open discussion for adoption and stories.
➡️ Supporting adopted children's cultural roots is a great way to help them to find identities. For example, lunar new year celebrations, adoptive camps or communities
➡️ Adoptees are also Third Culture Kids who might feel out of place in many communities because of their unique identities and family backgrounds.
➡️ Racism can be very subtle and lingering at the back of someone's mind. At times, it's not easy to figure it out.
➡️ Finding roots back in the homeland can be a potential plan for adoptees.
➡️ Either adoptive families or allies can be self-educated through online information, volunteer at events, and asking questions when adoptees want to talk about their stories.
