In this piece for the South African Sunday Times, Deborah Minors writes about her father’s experience of discovering he was adopted and her research on men’s feelings regarding adoption. "My father's anger was rooted in feelings of rejection,” writes Minors, “which is one of the seven issues that arise in adoption, as identified by psychologists. The others are issues around grief, loss, guilt/shame, identity, intimacy/relationships, and control. Psychologists say that everyone in the adoption 'triad' - the adoptee, birth parent and adoptive parent - will experience some or all of these." The article also features stories of other male adoptees and adoptive parents in South Africa, focusing on their attitudes and reactions towards adoption.
