My Child Lebensborn

A lot or a little?

Parents need to know that My Child Lebensborn is a role play game that presents the sometimes difficult moments of an adopted kid born to a German father and Norwegian mother, growing up in post-WWII Norway. The story covers some difficult subjects including war, conflict, bullying, and hatred towards others. It was inspired by experiences of real Lebensborn kids, who were born to German fathers and, often, mothers in German-occupied countries. Once the war was over, these kids were often rejected by their country because of their half-German parentage. As the adoptive parent, kids are in charge of working and providing for their child, Klaus or Karin (kids can choose to make their child a boy or a girl). Kids also make decisions about how to talk to Klaus/Karin about their biological parents, how to handle instances of bullying and harassment, and how far to investigate Klaus/Karin's family of origin. The story is long, and it could take hours to get through it completely. There's potential for some touching or disturbing moments in the narrative; parents should be available for discussion if needed. Kids can play in English, Norwegian, German, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Portuguese, or Spanish.
