Adoption reopens that old debate of race and religion, throwing in same sex adoption too in Harrow

Posted by on Feb 3, 2014 in Blog | 1 comment I was contacted by LBC radio to comment on this story As ever the topic of interracial adoption is a complex one, one that makes the headlines in the New York Times on the same day – link here. I think the title of the NY Time summarises the whole thing correctly. Yes race (and indeed religion) do matter. They are part of a child’s identity, and it will stay way into adulthood. In an ideal...

Adoption Passport and Mr Timpson’s timid approach to a tragic situation

Posted by on May 14, 2013 in Blog | 0 comments In recent days the UK Government launched yet another new adoption initiative.

But it has. And it’s time to do something about it. This is why I am proud to say that our patron Oona King is fully behind us. This is what she said: “Like Francesca, I am an adoptive parent of two lovely children. And...

How does it feel to be an adoptive parent?

Posted by on Apr 11, 2011 in Blog | 1 comment Gaia, my adopted daughter turned three last week. Just a few days later I celebrated Mother’s Day with both of my adopted children for the first time. Invariably people close, and not so close, will ask me how it feels on occasions like this. What they’re angling at, of course, is whether I think about my children’s ‘real’ mothers. This is what I know. I know that...
