Did You Know?
Open adoption is a general term that refers to contact between birth and adoptive families. Most domestic infant adoptions today encompass some degree of openness. In several states, open adoption relationships are defined and agreed upon in a legally binding contract. In other states, however, the agreement is an informal one between the parties involved, without the legal underpinnings. Ask your agency or adoption resource which laws will apply to you.

Tackling Tough Adoption Talks
You know talking about adoption is important -- but sometimes life isn't that agreeable. A complicated story, a lack of facts or information that's hard to share with your child can make talking about adoption really tough.
Join Jayne Schooler as she discusses how to tackle tough talks when:
- Kids don't want to talk
- Siblings have different stories and different amounts of information
- You don't have enough information to answer questions
- You have biological kids AND adopted kids
Our expert is joined by Carmen Knight, an adult adopted person. Carmen gives real life examples of how her parents incorporated adoption into her life – even when it wasn't an easy task.
