There are usually two mothers in an adopted child’s life. On one hand, an adoptive mom takes the responsibility to be involved in raising, nurturing, and providing for a child. On the other hand, the biological mom is the one who’s responsible for bringing that child into the world. It may be challenging to find balance in how we honor these two figures, but in this podcast, we talk explain how we can appreciate both mothers for their impact on an adopted child’s life.

Future adoptive parents have their own preferences on who they plan to welcome home through adoption, but from this arises a group of children who are considered “unadoptable” — boys, children above the age of 3, sibling groups, and children with special needs.   Jossell Malonzo, ROHEI Foundation’s Manager of Family Services, shares her previous experiences of working in a children’s home and the realities faced by children aging out.

Special cases include adopting relatives, stepchildren, adults, and indirectly placed children. This is Family is the Answer: An Adoption and Foster Care Podcast.
