Honesty, Transparency, & Authenticity Webinar

Audiobook
“Your parents couldn’t take care of you” just isn’t enough. I’ve worked with hundreds of adopted kids and thousands of adoptive parents…and most important, I listen very very very closely to adoptees. Your adopted child’s story is just that…THEIR story. There are some parts of it that are hard. Maybe even REALLY hard. No one wants to talk to their kids about this stuff. But we have to. And you can. You just need a little support, and maybe a few scripts. Kids need an honest, transparent, and authentic story about their lives (this is about attachment science). This webinar will explore: •Why it’s important for children to know the truth about their life story •The importance of attunement and connection when sharing hard stories •Specific tools and language for discussing these difficult topics with children ( abuse -including sexual abuse, mental illness, substance abuse, rape, abandonment and more). Handouts can be requested by emailing OrparcLibrary@nwresource.org
