How to Talk About Adoption, Identity, and Belonging with Kids | Nefertiti Austin | A Kids Co.

Adoption is a lifelong process of identity and belonging, and how parents talk about it with our kids matters from the very beginning. Nefertiti Austin, author of Motherhood So White and a mother of two adopted kids, joins Elise Hu to share her personal path to adopting, why she chose to adopt within her own community, and the mindset she carries through parenthood. Nefertiti offers practical guidance for not only adoptive parents, but parents considering adoption or simply talking to kids about it. Together, Nefertiti and Elise discuss the biggest takeaways from adoption, how to normalize adoption in everyday lives, and how to stay grounded when conversations get difficult.
