So say if someone's out there, what would be your suggestion to an adoptee who's maybe just come out of the fog or maybe might still be in it or just has curious questions? What would be your advice to them? Or if they're experiencing some kind of mental health issue that they're not even really thinking about being adoption-related, what would be your suggestion? Yeah.
70:31
Yeah.
70:32
So my first suggestion and what I love is how resourced we are now with social media and the research that's out there.
70:44
It's out there.
70:45
And people like you and people like me that are putting content out there and speaking up, and I could name a billion other people that I really admire the work that they're doing, where they're putting it out there.
70:57
People have access to that now.
70:59
So if you are thinking about this or curious about this and you're an adoptee or an adoptive parent, you know, resource yourself.
73:42
yes hate on people they're quick to dismiss the other adoptee who's not had a great experience
