Jane Liedtke to speak in the Pacific North West

Jane Liedtke, from Our Chinese Daughters Foundation will be in Seattle, WA on January 10th and Portland, OR on January 17th from 10 a.m. thru 6 p.m. for the OCDF Chinese Culture Fairs.

These events are FREE—bring the whole family! From 3:00-5:00 p.m. at each of these events I will speak about "Returning to China with your Adopted Child" and talk about how you can prepare your child for the trip back to China, what to consider, age appropriate issues, what happens at an orphanage visit, what's in an orphanage file, and the experiences of families who have brought their children to China on return visits. (Please note—Some of the content during this talk may not be suitable for those young children who have not heard open adoption conversations in the home. Please schedule such that your child will be playing in the Kid's Corner during this time). This is not a child-care provided event. Children who are old enough to play on their own with the older girls (like my Emily who is 11) will be fine. Babies/Toddlers should be with parents at all times.
