20 Adoptee Blogs and Online Resources to Read

Just as every adoptive and birth parent has a right to tell their adoption story, so does every adoptee. And, perhaps there is no better medium for the long-term, ever-changing experience of being adopted than a blog. In fact, that's why there are so many adoptee blogs out there.

But, in the vast expanse of the internet, how can you find quality adoptee blogs that you can connect with and learn from?

We've gathered a few online resources and adoption blogs by adoptees below. Check them out to hear individual adoptees' thoughts, feelings, tips and questions about their own adoption stories.

But, before you get reading, there's something you should remember.

Every adoptee's story is different. After all, every adoption situation is unique. Some adoptees are inherently proud of their stories, while others use their adoptee blogs to work through the conflicting emotions they have about their birth parents, adoptive parents and other parts of their stories.

Whether or not an adoptee's perspective agrees with yours, remember that their thoughts and feelings are valid, too. Don't write off an adoptee blog just because an individual has a different opinion than you; take that opportunity to learn from their unique perspective. Let it influence your opinion of adoption as a whole.

Remember: Adoption is not black and white. There are a lot of complex emotions and thoughts for every member of the adoption triad — but especially for adoptees. You may find that learning about others' experiences will help you better understand your own.
