Adoptees Crossing Lines
In this podcast I deconstruct the romanticism holding up the family policing industry and expose the lies, abuse, and pain that gets silenced. I'm here to unwrap the shiny bow around adoption and speak my truths as an adoptee. In doing so, I explain what it means and what it feels like to “come out of the fog”. This isn't your feel good podcast, I am an angry, healing and honest adoptee.
Adoptees Crossing Lines
Adoption is not a part of God's plan
Adoption is Not A Part Of God’s Plan
People who adopt say it’s God’s plan for them to adopt. But, they almost never say that God’s plan is for them NOT to have children. This is just one of the many ways people use religion to justify human trafficking.
I found out, through an archived article, that I was trafficked by the Church through the One Church, One Child movement which operates in 32 states.
