  • What's It Really Like Growing Up Adopted In Australia?
    Nov 28 2024

    Sarah Davidson's first blood relative arrived when she gave birth to her son Teddy.

    Growing up, Sarah always knew she was adopted; brought to Australia from South Korea at just five months old, it was never a secret her parents, her brother and Sarah herself weren't biologically related to each other.

    But even after finding out you're adopted there are so many other questions, some of which people may choose to never find answers for.

    As Adoption Awareness Month comes to a close, we find out what life growing up adopted in Australia is really like.

    Nov 27 2024

    It's not always nice to think about, but giving people the choice to end their life might be the greatest gift we can offer.

    Today we hear from two people who were there when their loved ones ended their lives via voluntary assisted dying, and what they want you to know about that journey.

    Plus we look at how the laws are accessed, or not, across Australia too.
