On today’s episode, Gretchen Sisson, author of Relinquished, sits down with Cate & Ty to discuss about her research on the gap between the cultural perception of adoption and the lived experiences of birth parents. Gretchen talks about the coercion and lack of resources playing a significant part that often led women to choose adoption, emphasizes that many would have chosen differently had they had more financial stability and support. The conversation also delves into the adoption industry using marketing tactics, their financial aspects, and the ethical concerns surrounding the system’s inherent inequalities. Is every adoption a failure of society to provide adequate support for families? Cate & Ty break it down with Gretchen as she provides a nuanced look at adoption, challenging common assumptions and highlighting the need for change to better support birth parents, adoptees, and families in need.
