Creating a Family: Talk about Adoption, Foster & Kinship Care My Bio Kids Now Wish We Hadn't Adopted Our Nephews - Weekend Wisdom
Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.
Question: My husband and I adopted our nephews four months ago. The two boys are sons of my niece; she gave her kids to the Family Department five years ago, and last year, we at last knew about the boys. They've been a year with us. I have a daughter, 21, and a son, 17, who were okay with the adoption, but now they say they feel this is not their home; they don’t feel at peace in their house and think It was not a good idea to adopt, because of the hard situations with the kids. How can we affirm to our biological children that we did the correct thing to give the kids a family and that there is a process we must go through as a family to adapt?
