I'm a prospective adoptive mother, and I've been researching what it means to support both my biological child and our soon-to-be-adopted sibling from separate birth families. I've come across the term "blended family," which seems similar but distinct from adoption circumstances. Here, I'd like to ask for advice on how others handle these dynamics: What are some general strategies or philosophies that you or others in your own blended, foster-through-adoption, or adoptive families use to support both children's unique family histories?
