I’m adopted and I definitely think the best advice I can give to parents who adopt is to be open with her but if she ever doesn’t want to talk about her adoption and her feelings towards it, don’t force her to open up. She will when she’s ready ❤️

I agree. Our daughter still hasn't opened the letter her birth mother left her and has never wanted to meet her. We have shared everything we knew and answered all her questions in her teens, but since then she never mentions her adoption. And that is okay.

True, because if there is a good relationship. Some adoptees prefer never to know about their adoption. It's too hurtful to imagine belonging to anyone else.

After our bio children left home, Hubby and I adopted a toddler from China. She’s a young woman now, and has always LOVED the fact that she was adopted (chosen) by us! She DELIGHTS in telling her adoption story to anyone who’s interested. So the good news is, not all adoptees are bothered, or hung up on that fact. 😊

Fellow adoptive mama here. You're doing an amazing job with Story and her birth mama. Adoption is ALWAYS born out of loss. You realize that, and are educating yourselves on adoption related traumas, and thats awesome of you. We are still learning about different traumas with our kiddos as they go through different ages and stages. Its not always easy but its so worth it! Love you guys!

Im flabbergasted at some of the questions that people ask! No-one is a perfect parent 100% of the time and you learn something new every day! Story is a dear little girl being raised by 2 parents who obviously love her to bits and has an extended family of loving, pro-social human beings who are not afraid to share their emotions! These experienced parents will help you guys throughout your parenting journey to be the best Mum and Dad you can be. I wouldn't worry a jot about what other people think because only your relationships with Story and to a smaller extent, at least for now, the relationship she has with her birth mother, will define the adult she turns out to be! I had 5 kids who are now aged between 31 and 41 and I'm a Grandma now, but my only living grandchild is 18, and I miss all the grandchildren who I never got to meet. I would have loved to have had a granddaughter to do girly things with, but I don't and babies are SUCH a joy when they are well loved as Story is. Sometimes I'll watch Tik Toks of happy babies chuckling away, and somehow I found you 3, and I am enjoying watching how Story changes with every new video. Don't sweat the small stuff and keep doing what you're doing. You have a wonderful little family and enjoy every moment! From country NSW Australia.

Fellow adoptive mom here. You guys are great. Although parenting is never easy, when your road to parenting is long or hard, you do tend to enjoy the harder times because you realize they are still a blessing you could have missed. Our daughter is now 8, she's known every day that she's adopted. She has rough moments where she misses her bmom, even though we've had her since birth. Every child deals with this separation in their own way. Recently, she was upset because she's the only one in her class that's adopted. You deal with the questions and feelings the best way you can and with as much honesty as they can handle as they grow. Our girl now knows all the reasons for her adoption and why her bmom chose us, but there are days we still get asked those questions. You keep doing what you're doing. Those who haven't gone through the process will never understand the training and classes you went through to help your child along her path to cope and understand her story. Per other comments, those of us who have gone through the process think you guys are doing great. Congratulations! Enjoy your child and parenthood. Some days will be easier than others, but they all will be blessings.

No parent knows everythinadoption or not. We have 10 grandkids and only one is adopted from birth. It has never been a secret and she is free to feel and talk about it anytime. She is ours just like all the others. No difference at all. All children are blessings…I never mention to anyone that she is adopted. Not that I’m keeping it a secret but that I truly do not think about it. When she talks about her birth parents we simply say (and we mean it) we are thankful for them. They did what they thought was best for her and not just what made them feel less guilty. They were unselfish!! Everyone in her world has loved her to pieces and she is a joy like all our kids and grands are!! Congratulations to your sweet family!! You are doing it just right…enjoy every single minute. 💗🥰

I agree I completely romanticized it and have for 23 years and I've had some pretty wild curves throwing my way My oldest is autistic and severely intellectually disabled. Not things you plan. But I truly tried to enjoy every minute and I'm glad I have two that moved into college dorms this year and it feels like someone's like taking part of your heart and chucking it. But I can say that I don't look back and feel like I didn't take advantage of every minute that I could. Also college is expensive not just the college itself but their whole life while they're in college is expensive.

Parenthood is easy for you guys because you are rich. It's sad but it's true. Most of us other moms would also be a lot less stressed if money wasn't an issue. Imagine the possibilities? They can afford to take classes to better thier parenting, they would never have to worry they couldn't afford more diapers, story will be able to be in any sport she desires, go to collage. Most of us parents can't garuntee any of those things for out kids. Of course they "glorify parenting" they are happy, healthy, successful people. They have things very easy, they are incredibly blessed and lucky.

People tend to be judgemental when it comes to parenting, moreso when your children are adopted. Follow your instincts, enjoy your little girl. Don't let anyone steal that happiness from you. She is clearly dripping in love from the two of you every moment. That's what's most important. You seen like a wonderful family

Romanticising parenthood 😂😂😂I had wonderful babies and that was my experience with all 3 of my sons it’s probably because my first son had to be resuscitated at birth so I was privileged to be a mother second son is a rainbow baby so I embraced every last moment and loved even the hard bits & my last son was a twin and we lost our daughter but to have the privilege of leaving the hospital with just one baby and to go home with him was nothing short of a miracle could’ve wallowed but that would’ve gained me nothing I would’ve missed all the special magical moments it actually gave other women around me a well when they had babies they would call screaming why did you make this look beautiful and easy because for me it was I took every negative and made a positive ❤

I was adopted at 3 years old and my adoptive parents have always been open about it with me so it was always a normal part of me and never something I felt bad about or ashamed of. I had a closed adoption due to the circumstances so I did not learn all the details until I was older but I now have contact with my birth mom and have a great relationship with both my adoptive and birth parents. As I got older I did get curious about my birth parents and my family but always felt comfortable asking questions and talking about it with my adoptive parents and that was extremely helpful for me, so my best advice from an adoptee would be to just be open and honest and create an environment where she feels comfortable talking and asking questions which I know you guys already have down! I know some adoptive parents try to close their child off from their birth parents/family and In my opinion that just creates a barrier between adoptive parents and the child. I wouldn’t change a thing about my story and I know you guys will create the perfect environment for Story to thrive!!🤍 Adoption is beautiful!

I can say that I now realize something was missing but I didn’t realize it. They look like me, act like me, have similar tastes and hobbies as me. It’s great. I have two adopted girls. Our open adoptions makes it so they can know things about their birth family. See pictures, talk to them and some day meet them (before they become adults)

I would do my best to ignore people who leave question able comments, most of the people who follow you trust you and your judgements when it comes to Story or your life!!

Saying “no” to protect them is healthy. Saying “no” just to say no or cause drama is unhealthy. I know you’re going to be protective and kind and adventurous parents. You’ll set boundaries until they are challenged and then make up the rules as you go. You will be wonderful at it.

First of all people need to mind their own business. Every parent is different and does their own thing their own way. No one way is the wrong way. You have to do what is right for you guys and your little family. Never mind all the negative people out there that are miserable in their own lives. Be happy, you can see how happy that little girl is and the wonderful life she is living. Enjoy every minute of that beautiful baby she’s going to grow up fast. You are good parents never forget that!! ❤
