Listen "The Icky Side of Adoption: Unethical Adoption, Money & Lo's Story"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Stay Planted, Lo & Em sit down to talk about the side of adoption that often gets buried—the unethical, uncomfortable, and deeply personal parts.Lo gets into their family's story of the unethical side of adoption and how greed can ruin a hopeful adoptive parent's journey. We dig into the role of money in the adoption industry—how it influences decisions, creates power imbalances, and turns a life-altering experience into what feels like a transaction.This conversation is raw, honest, and necessary. Adoption is an excellent example of how we are adopted into God's Kingdom. But here in this broken world, we are dealing with humans, and since the beginning, humans have been messing things up. BUT.God is bigger. When he calls you to adoption, he will make a way when there seems to be no way.Stay Planted with us!
