How to handle adopted children's questions about birth families

We adopted our daughter as a baby and she is asking about her birth parents and my husband thinks we should tell her everything but I am terrified of losing her.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Adoptive parents must navigate the tension between their child's need for origin stories and their own fears of displacement.
