It's, like, quiet in the middle of being intimate. Like, speak about what feels good, what doesn't feel good.
Or you're just like, oh, I don't really like that. I don't like that.
Okay, I think we have said that before.
I think I've said that to you before.
I guess it would have to lead you into conversation. Why? Yeah, why don't you like that? Yeah, why? Why don't you like that?
So there needs to be some honest communication happening.
So that way you have options to like, well, so that way you have a very productive conversation about the issue.
I'm like, Oh yeah, not help me at all. So I'm not doing it right.
It's a huge part of a relationship.
And then you have a mediator where you don't have to feel like you're hurting his feelings or something, you know?
That's even something to look into.
All right, so the last one that I thought was good, and obviously this person is wanting to go about this the right way. I wasn't really, it's kind of a hard one for me, but they said, I'm wanting to adopt, but we are struggling with trying to find the most ethical options. In your opinion, do you think there's any ethical adoption? Hmm.
Because a slave probably shouldn't adopt.
So yesterday I was speaking on a live with a few adoptees that we talked to. I was on live with them. And then also this birth mom on there, or not this birth mom, this adoptive mom that's on there. And her herself, she said, you know, she adopted her son recently. It was through like foster care stuff. But she even said in turn, if she could go back, she would even do things differently.
And she said, I would do like a legal permanent guardianship. She said, because then his birth certificate would have stayed the same. A lot of his rights would have stayed the same. But I still would be considered like a parent to be able to make all the decisions for him. But and I was like, wow, that was very shocking to me. And I was like, I'm very proud of you for saying that.
Because even she, you know, and she is a very open adoption person.
Right. And so I thought it was interesting, this person that wrote, she's like, she's not finding any ethical options. And it's like, because... Because there's not.
Right, or is it just to become a parent?
And then it also just reiterates what adoptees think. Like, oh, they saved me and I need to be grateful.
Or start the process of it. Yeah. Because it's got to be very painful.
