Talking about adoption, birthparents, abandonment, race, and China with my kids. That's not all we talk about -- but reading this blog, you'll think it's all we do!!!!!

Ideas for Polls
You've probably noticed it's been a while since I posted a poll -- I've run out of ideas! Please email me if you have something you think would make a good poll topic. I'd especially appreciate it if you'd draft the question and choices!
A) Taking the child to culture camp B) Living in a transracial (adoptive) neighbourhood C) Learning about the culture and traditions D) Learning the language
*shrugs* Just some thoughts. If I can think of a better one, I'll probably get back to you in a few days.
How about something along the lines of how/what are children think about meeting their birthparents (or just a discussion on it). M has some very specific things she wants to ask, things she says she will do (we talk about that as it won't just be her decision), and how long she wants to talk with them/visit them.
Maybe the poll could relate to our children's thoughts about birth/first parents.
Hm.
ReplyDeleteHow about what APs value most in adoption:
A) Taking the child to culture camp
B) Living in a transracial (adoptive) neighbourhood
C) Learning about the culture and traditions
D) Learning the language

Thanks for the suggestions! I posted a different poll, but will definitely be keeping these in the bank.
