It's also a day for adoptive parents to connect with others and reflect upon their adoption journey. For couples experiencing the pain of infertility, adoption can be a wonderful way to become parents. However, there are many other kinds of people who adopt children each year. Maybe they simply want to provide a home for a child in need. Or maybe a woman has a medical condition that would make it dangerous to carry a baby. Others adopt because they are single, but still wish to have children. On the other side of the spectrum, there are many reasons children are given up for adoption. Each year on this day, those affected by adoption are encouraged to draw a smiley face on their hand and take a photo. To help raise awareness for adoption,

Musician Cecil 'Styles' Mbatha is a name and face that is very familiar to us at East Coast Radio, but what many of us do not know about him is that he was adopted. With the 9th of November being World Adoption Day, Keri Miller had an eye-opening and emotional chat with the 27-year-old artist who admits that not knowing his biological parents has left him with many unanswered questions all his life. His chat with Keri becomes even more heartbreaking when he speaks about the hardships he has faced; from being discriminated against at school and work to being called derogatory names because he cannot speak his language of birth. Listen to the full interview.

If you're a child of the 90s, you probably remember Lindsay Price after she joined the cast of 90210 in 1998, or prior to that when she made a name for herself in both "All My Children" and "The Bold and the Beautiful." Most recently she played Camille in 2 seasons of "Breaking Up Together." In 2008 she starred in the NBC drama, "Lipstick Jungle." Inspired by her mom's harrowing adoption story in South Korea, Lindsay is an adoption advocate and works with AdoptTogether to spread awareness about the importance of adoption and how many children in the world need loving homes.Lindsay opens up to Hilaria and Daphne about how life for her changed when she went from a mom of one to a mom of 2, her approach to balancing the chaos of life between her career and motherhood, and how she handles the aggression/rough housing her little boys display towards each other. However, things get amazing when she opens up about her mom's incredible story of survival and her journey out of South Korea, and her subsequent adoption which so deeply connects Lindsay's own life today.Please support Adopt Together and help families in their efforts to adopt by going to adopttogether.org.Adopt Together's annual event Baby Ball will be weekend of October 11th this year and World Adoption Day is on November 9th.
