The paradox/es surrounding adoption is multilayered— something Jean brings awareness & attention to as society becomes more familiar with how adoption affects all members of the adoption constellation. This includes birth mothers in particular, the adoptee & the adoptive family.
Her book is a combination of memoirs from all birth parents, the adoptee & adoptive family members & makes a strong point of the pros & cons of open adoption.
Her book is a must read for anyone whose life has been touched by adoption.
