No one is forced to
talk in here. You may just observe
for a while and decide.
To help people feel safe in the
room, we ask that you do not ask questions of
others. They may not be ready to share
their answers. Joe and Jen will be happy
to answer any questions you may have.
It is not Okay to criticize
anyone for any reason. If
you have a problem, email me or send me a
private message.
Note: Women who lost babies to adoption
are referred to s "moms", "1st moms", or
"natural moms". They are mothers of adoption
loss. They did not give their babies to
anyone. Their babies were taken by adoption.
We do not
use the word "adopter". Adoptive parents may be
referred to as such or as "A-rents" or "Aparents".
We do not use
"bio", "b", "biological" or "birth" in reference
to mothers.
Gossip inside
and outside of our room hurts
our mission of healing from
adoption wounds. Please keep talk
confidential, except in
emergencies.
