We adopted 3 infants so I know a little bit about adoption too. Our adoptions took place in ‘63 ‘66 and ‘72. Nothing was known about the birth parents. Of course we told our children they were adopted but we had nothing more to tell them. I have asked if they were troubled by that and other than an occasional curious though I don't think they are distressed by it, as these girls in the article. I hope not anyway. When our daughter was a teen ager she saw a program on TV about adoption and was upset, I told her if she waited until she was an adult I would help her look for her birth parents, she never asked again.

My adopted relatives know who their parents are. They were raised by their parents. Birth parents...that’s another matter.

God bless you and yours. Yours.
