Think of these as conversation starters. There are no right answers. The goal isn't to make your relationship look a certain way. The goal is to understand each other a little better. Use these downloads to move beyond surface-level conversations, explore what’s working, talk about changing needs and expectations, and simply get to know one another better.
You have an open adoption but aren't sure how the relationship is really going.
You communicate regularly but mostly talk about your child.
You want to move beyond surface-level conversations.
You’ve been wondering if expectations have changed over time.
You’re entering a new season of your adoption relationship.
You want to talk about boundaries, communication, or connection but don't know where to start.
You want to be proactive about your relationship rather than waiting for a difficult moment.
You simply want to know each other better.
You'll have the opportunity to reflect on different aspects of your connection, identify what is working well, and open the door to conversations about areas that may need more attention.
This worksheet creates an opportunity to learn more about one another as people—not just as “the adoptive parent” or “the birth parent.” Use it to move beyond the usual adoption conversations and discover the interests, experiences, hopes, and everyday things that make each of you who you are.
