When They Were Young: Amplifying Voices of Adoptees

Ep. 17 (Part 1) Schai Belair Toussiant Schairer: Adoptee Interview! Two Brothers One Family


Listen Later

Part of Adoptive parent conversation series! 

We are back with sister soldier Schai, who interviews her two brothers; one is biological and the other is adopted. She leads them through a conversation on how she met her twin in adulthood, how they think adoption could be improved and what it means to have them all get along within this complicated familial web. What a beautiful model of a whole hearted conversation.
