I know that contact has been covered many times here, but as you know, it is an ever changing landscape. I have had some really interesting conversations with adopters and social workers and wanted to share these stories with you and get your thoughts too.

In this week's episode, I am talking about changing our children's names, I shall discuss the legal options and then the moral questions. I know that this is something that a lot of people think about before going into the world of adoption, so thought I would share my views and experiences to help you along the way.

As our little dude celebrated his 18th birthday party I reflected on how far he has come and what an awesome young man he is.
He also got to come along and discuss adoption with a group of prospective adopters, which was awesome!

Through various conversations I have had over the years. I have learnt many people would like to have a crash course on what it is like to parent a teenager. Here is my views thoughts and recommendations, I will be covering a range of topics some are a lot easier to discuss than others. I will give you a full lowdown of what topics I’m going to cover and in what order so as you can make sure that you’re listening to the right part for you. If there are any topics, you’d like me to look at more please do let me know.
