The Hidden Struggle of Adoptees

Grace Yung Foster shares a powerful narrative about the pitfalls of adoption, particularly the Savior complex that society often imposes on adoptees. 🎭

She emphasizes that this complex forces adoptees to suppress their true feelings and experiences, compelling them to fit into societal expectations rather than being their authentic selves. 🎎

Grace's words resonate deeply, not only with adoptees but also with many communities of color who face similar pressures to assimilate and conform. 🌏

She acknowledges the gratitude adoptees feel for the homes provided to them, but also highlights the importance of allowing them to express their genuine emotions about their lived experiences.

Grace's insights serve as a reminder that everyone deserves to be seen and heard for who they truly are, not just the roles society expects them to play.

Let's continue to challenge these stereotypes and create a world where everyone can freely share their unique stories.
