Social Media and the Adopted Child
Social media has revolutionized the way we connect with one another. This has meant that open adoption communication is more convenient than ever before. Social media, along with tools such as Google, can also mean that your tween or teen may be searching for information or birth relatives online. It also means she could be approached online by a birth relative…or someone posing as one. The possibilities are both exciting and terrifying.
This webinar will share strategies and tips on how adoptive parents can:
- Talk to their child about searching
- Be aware of oversharing someone else’s story
- Identify safety risks and how to avoid them
- Institute limits on screen time and location
