For adopted parents and their children, it's sometimes hard to know how much of your (and your child's) story you should share with others. In this post on AdoptionBlogs.com, Erin H shares her thoughts and experiences regarding her own adopted children and their process for deciding how much to share and with whom.

"I think it's important for adoptive parents to see what your child's comfort level is with sharing information, and guiding them (if needed) with coming up with appropriate responses to peoples questions."

Erin H also sees her children's adoption stories as opportunities to inspire others to consider adoption.
