from Unscripted: A Nolapapa Podcast · host Erik Alexander
Send us Fan MailNovember is National Adoption Month, and as y'all may know, all three of our babies came to us through open adoption. So this episode, my husband Douglas joins us to talk about our experiences with the adoption process through the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. We're reliving those early days as new dads, how we chose the path of open adoption, and what it means for our family. You'll also hear some of the Dave Thomas Foundation's heartwarming stories of foster and adoptive families. Learn more at www.davethomasfoundation.orgThen, I sit down with our family's own clinical social worker, the wonderful woman who saw us through all three of our adoptions, Suzy Loeb. We talk about building trust with your adoption team, how to maintain open communications and allow relationships with birth families to develop, how to talk to our kids about adoption, and so much more.
