这项定性研究涉及40对夫妇（同性和异性恋）中的77人，他们通过家庭、私人或国际方式收养孩子，研究了父母通过技术（例如，短信，电子邮件，社交媒体）通过夫妇和家庭技术框架的透镜（Hertlein & Blumer，2014）。父母采用三种方式进行联系：主动、被动和不联系。无论采取何种方法，一些家长都对界限表示担忧。夫妇们普遍同意他们通过技术与出生家庭接触的观点。从业者必须了解通过技术管理关系，并帮助收养家庭设定健康的界限。
This qualitative study of 77 individuals in 40 couples (same-sex and heterosexual), who had adopted publically, privately, or internationally, examined parents' engagement with their child's birth family via technology (e.g., texting, e-mail, social media) through the lens of the Couple and Family Technology framework (Hertlein & Blumer, 2014). Parents used three approaches to contact: active, passive, and no contact. Regardless of approach, some parents described concerns about boundaries. Couples were generally in agreement in their perspectives on engaging with birth family via technology. Practitioners must be knowledgeable about management of relationships via technology and help adoptive families set healthy boundaries.
