Two Good Mums is made up of two women. Laura, the first mother and Peggy the adoptive mother of our two sons. We have worked together since meeting for the first time to break the boundaries of the rules that were set in place that we felt did not serve us and our want to put the needs of the boys first. As our friendship grew we have come to realise that ours is a unique situation; but it doesn’t have to be. We want to share our story so that others can see how different it can be. Whilst we understand that every situation and adoption has different circumstances, we support and advocate for change in how adoption and contact is planned, facilitated and carried out. Vast improvements can and need to be made, where it is safe to do so for the child/children involved.
