Yanica & Leah Faustin chat with becoming babyREADY
Listen now
Description
I am excited to introduce you to Yanica and Leah Faustin, a “Multicultural Two Mom Family.” Our conversation went so many different places. One of the key elements we discussed was how, with an interracial family, you need to constantly advocate for your children while at the same time, important it is to teach children feel confident advocating for themselves. We also talked about something that straight couples & many Canadian lesbian couples don’t need to take into consideration when creating a family; a non-birthing and/or non-biologic parent needing to actually ADOPT THEIR OWN CHILD! This is regardless (for many of our American peers) of what or who is on the birth certificate.  You can see them together on YouTube: youtube.com/@TheFaustinFam? and on Instagram @thefaustinfam
