Cate 0:08
Okay guys, welcome back to another episode of Kate and Ty Break It Down. Let's jump right in.
Ty 0:13
What is what is the most surprising thing that you didn't know before you started this project that you like kind of came to the realization?
Lisa Elaine Scott 0:19
I mean, there's a lot. But so when I started, and people said the industry, you gotta look into the industry, Lisa. I'm like, okay, I don't know. And I started looking into the industry and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I mean all the websites. First of all the the the number of entities, agencies, um, attorneys, all of the there's there's a whole cottage industry. We'll help you make your um your your profile books. We'll help you, you know, facilitators, all that. The multiple branches,
Ty 0:50
every everything.
Lisa Elaine Scott 0:51
Everything. So so that was the first thing. I was just like, What industry? Okay, I get it now. I'm I'm seeing this. And then just the The the the coercion, the coercive tactics used on any website that you go to.
Cate 1:05
Or for instance, if a woman Googles like looking for resources, young and pregnant, it's like adoption, adoption. It's not even resources first, it's adoption first. Right. Yeah. Right.
Lisa Elaine Scott 1:15
So the geofencing. Right.
Unknown 1:17
And we're gonna talk about that in the film for sure. Yeah.
Lisa Elaine Scott 1:19
It's just so unethical. that it just blew my mind. And I mean there have been many days where, you know, when I went to bed the night before I thought I'd seen it all. I'm like, yeah, this is bad and I've seen it all, you know, okay, whatever. I get up the next day and I'm getting okay, let me get and I see something, I just oh my gosh. I guess I haven't seen it all. So this hap it's still happening. Um Again, I've talked to dozens and dozens of women. Uh they will not all be in the film. And and hopefully, you know, the plan is to have like a lot of um like extra material that people can so for people who want to go deeper and maybe really re researchers. Yeah, I mean so I'm I'm collecting a lot of things.
Lisa Elaine Scott 1:59
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um so while all the interviews I'm doing won't make it into the film, uh, you know, they may be hopefully we can make them available so that more voices can be a bit more than a bit of a lot of bonus content. Mm.
Lisa Elaine Scott 2:16
Yeah. But what can people what c
Ty 2:17
what type of people can other people expect to see in the film? Like a li like adoptees, like uh you know, birth parent, like what what what can they expect to see?
Lisa Elaine Scott 2:26
So it and it's not so much about adoptees, 'cause here's the thing, and I got that push back immediately. And I I don't get it so much. Yeah, I'm gonna I don't get it so much anymore 'cause I guess everybody knows 'cause I've just told it enough times. I don't I don't I'm not really interested in this film with how adoptions end up because again, you already said it. You said you're gonna you're gonna hear Oh, I had a great adoption. Mine was beautiful. So I'm like and then and you know what? We're happy about that. First of all, for the record.
Unknown 2:55
Yeah.
Lisa Elaine Scott 2:56
I I want every adopted person to have a great life and have a great experience. And so, you know, nobody's opposed to that. But That's just tit for tat then. Oh, I'm gonna show this bad experience. You're gonna come no. The film is about what happens before somebody becomes an adoptee. Right. Right. It's about the woman, the pregnant woman, her family, um, her circumstances. What did she look for? What did she receive? All of that. How much was she, you know, how much coercion did she uh uh experience? What was the end result? And then how things are now. So maybe we're talking to a a mom who relinquished, you know, six months ago, maybe a year and a half ago, maybe five years ago. So we will hear a little bit of that part of the story, but it's really not about that.
Lisa Elaine Scott 3:45
It's about let's stop how could we have prevented that? Again, these are women who said Um, gee, I I I would love to keep my baby. I just have challenges. Maybe I'm in crisis.
Unknown 3:57
Mm-hmm.
Lisa Elaine Scott 3:58
And then what happens after that? So that's the first thing.
