When Adopted Children Start Seeking Answers
About this session: A sharing circle for adoptive families to explore what happens when a child begins to question, search, or is curious to know where they came from.
Facilitators:
1. Tahira Thekaekara, Adoptive parent
2. Rajesh Mehar, Adoptive parent
Who is it for?
- Your child has started asking questions about their birth family or story.
- They are expressing a wish to search for or connect with their birth parents.
- You've felt caught off guard or unsure how to respond.
- You're an adoptee, sibling, or family member who has experienced this.
This sharing circle is designed primarily as a space for adoptive parents to connect, reflect, and share their experiences with one another. Adult adoptees are welcome to attend and participate. Some discussions may not be age-appropriate and we request that children not attend the session.
Please note that childcare will not be available at the venue. If you have circumstances that make it difficult for you to attend without bringing your child, please write to us at sharingcircles.manotsava@rohininilekaniphilanthropies.org
