The Adoption Files

The Godly Family: deconstructing from adoption and religious trauma; a conversation with Dani Joy


Listen Later

Please join Dani Joy and I as we continue our conversation on deconstruction from adoption and religious trauma. Todays episode is a discussion on the Ideal Family narrative. We talk about how the Christian belief system that we experienced created an environment where harm was inevitable.

Some resources for people deconstructing from religious trauma:

Considering terminating your parental rights for adoption? Please first consider contacting:

There are a number of support spaces online for adopted people and for mothers of loss and other family members. You can also find adoptees and mothers on IG, Tiktok and other social media platforms. Quality varies. We encourage people to reach out to form support systems. Reading and listening for a while can be helpful in determining if a space aligns with your needs.
