If we ever had a question they were easy to get in contact with and Tina herself took the time out of her busy day to reach out to us. We worked with Jennifer, Jordan, and Audrey and each woman was knowledgeable, respectful, and diligent. Audrey did our post placement meetings and was great and not intimidating at all. They are also very caring to our birth mother and provide counseling. If we adopt again in the future we will definitely use legacy again.

Too often, birth families disappear for years after placement, and when that happens, adoptees and adoptive families are left to pick up the pieces, wondering why contact stopped and whether they did something wrong. It's not just the absence of letters, phone calls, or updates; it's the absence of EFFORT, the absence of presence, and the absence of acknowledgment. Too often, birth families disappear for years after placement, slipping into silence while the adoptee grows up in the fallout of unanswered questions. The quiet becomes louder with age. What starts as confusion turns into sadness, then into resignation, then into a kind of emotional scar that follows you into adulthood. That silence creates a lifetime of wondering, grieving a relationship that never had the chance to exist, and carrying the weight of questions that no one ever stepped up to answer. Birth families often fail to follow through with promised contact, updates, or communication, even though sending a letter or message takes extremely little effort. Growing up with no communication leaves you constantly wondering, questioning, and trying to make sense of why there was no effort to stay connected. For me, years of complete silence and no communication, a little photo book from early 2000s from my birth mother, to preschool well into adulthood created a long-lasting sense of loss, confusion, and emotional distance that no adoptee should have to navigate alone from a biological family being absent. That silence becomes its own kind of wound and is an EXCUSE people give for disappearing, while the adoptee is left to carry the confusion and pain it creates. While I realize open adoption is not legally binding in the state of Texas, consistency matters. When birth families go silent for years or decades, the emotional consequences fall entirely on the adoptee who never asked to be placed in that position. It isn't fair to expect an adoptee to carry the emotional responsibility of fixing relationships that were never maintained. We don't owe our biological families contact, closure, or forgiveness. Adoption agencies often put this pressure on adoptive families to send updates when staying connected is a SHARED effort, and when one side walks away for decades, it's not the adoptee's burden to make that right again, so when your lazy birth mothers randomly wake up one day choosing to reunify with the birth children they never kept contact with, they fail miserably. This is the part adoption agencies rarely talk about. Agencies talk about love, hope, placement, and new beginnings, and those things can be beautiful. But they don't talk enough about: * what happens when birth relatives disappear * what open adoption promises go unfulfilled * how adoptees internalize the silence * how confusing reunions can be * how heavy it is to carry decades of unanswered questions * how complicated it is to rebuild trust * how harmful inconsistent communication truly is in the adoption community. Agencies and adoption agencies like Gladney give themselves a round of applause for doing absolutely nothing about this regarding birth families going MIA. They should better prepare both birth and adoptive families for that possibility, so the adoptee doesn't grow up feeling forgotten or responsible for everyone else's choices. And let me be absolutely clear: adoptees do not owe their biological families anything. Not a Christmas card, not a Mother's Day message, not acknowledgment of holidays or milestones because those things are earned through actually showing up. Adoptees deserve to have their boundaries respected and their voices heard. Reconnection, if it ever happens, should come from a place of mutual respect and emotional safety, not guilt or obligation. Adoption is lifelong, and adoptees should always have the right to decide what relationships feel healthy for them.

Staff were often expected to manage high workloads within adequte resources or guidance. Concerns raised by employees were frquently dismissed or not addressed, which contributed to low morale and burnout. While the organization's mission has potential, significant improvements in management practices, staff support, and accountability are needed to create a healthy and sustainable workplace. This workplace had a stressful and unsupportive environment. Expectation frequently changed without notice, and staff were often held accountable without proper training or clear direction. Communication from management felt reactive rather than proactive, and there was little follow-through when issues were reported. Over time, this created a culture of fear anf high turnover. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS WORKPLACE TO someone seeking stability or strong leadership team.
