ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

Through foster care, which I think is like people are like, oh, well, don't adopt through the private industry or adoption industry.

Adopt through foster care.

Cate & Ty Break It Down

Well, listen, it's your intention though.

Cate & Ty Break It Down

If your intention is to be a parent and I want to have a child and raise and be a mom or be a dad, then you should not go adopt from foster care because that system is designed for children in crisis and to eventually have reunification.

Um, it almost makes me a better question.

Cate & Ty Break It Down

Have you ever asked your adoptive mom?

Cate & Ty Break It Down
ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

Why did, why didn't you adopt through foster care?

Cate & Ty Break It Down
ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

I mean, no one's really thinking about that.

Cate & Ty Break It Down

But that fear is organic and natural and that maybe you're afraid of naturally connecting to the child that you have.

Cate & Ty Break It Down

To fear something so biologically natural and organic, it's like โ€“ and I think the doctor agencies prey on that fear.

So have you talked to your biological mom?

Cate & Ty Break It Down
ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

Does your biological mom have any relationship with your adoptive mom?

Cate & Ty Break It Down

Even with all the visits and stuff that you had growing up?

Cate & Ty Break It Down
ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

Right.

Cate & Ty Break It Down

But did you ever feel like you could make that choice on your own?

Cate & Ty Break It Down
ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

Um, so I think a lot of adoptees, when I, when I asked certain questions, they go, well, I, I wanted to, but I, I, I, and I'll, and they, my parents never told me that I couldn't, but I never felt the freedom.

Cate & Ty Break It Down
ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

Yes.

Cate & Ty Break It Down
ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

It's that, you know what I'm saying?

Cate & Ty Break It Down
ENCORE Pay-to-Play: The Marketing & Broken Promises In Adoption feat. Connor Howe

The primary, always.

No, I agree.
