Let us reminisce about our childhoods for a moment. Our parents telling us to do the dishes, move away from the TV screen to avoid damaging our eyes, and bundle up in 50 layers to avoid freezing in the October weather were happy-go-lucky times of delight and, at times, frustration. But there is a common denominator: hugs, warmth, caring, and love. Some youngsters, on the other hand, have no such recollections.
However, one word – adoption – may alter everything. The constant possibility of security and the potential to have a loving, joyful family life. It’s a moment of pure joy, a time to remember, and a moment to rejoice. As a result, over the past two years, the non-profit group Together We Rise has been photographing them.
We’ll also look at the broader picture, delving into the subtleties of adoption and foster care, considering how we might aid foster youngsters if we can’t adopt, and speculating on where the future could lead. Let’s get started!
