W.I.S.E. UP POWERBOOK

  • Schoettle, Marilyn, M.A.
  • Singer, Ellen, LCSW

“HOW DOES W.I.S.E. UP! WORK? W.I.S.E. Up! is very simple. The letters in WISE stand for the four options children have for responding to questions or comments about adoption: W Walk away or ignore what is said or heard. I It’s private and I don’t have to answer it. S Share something about my adoption story.
E Educate others about adoption in general.”
“Children are taught to memorize their options, quickly assess each situation, and choose one of the four choices that feels most right based on their mood, the person asking the question, or in what context it is being asked. It’s important for them to know that whatever they choose is find.”
