It's all about MEEEE! There's a good chance the birth parents don't want to be found.
I think many of these adoptees engage in fantasy that the parent who gave them up will somehow be better parents than the ones they had.
Whew I read the heading too fast. I thought it was about Obama’s Birth Record.
How much time did Bill Clinton spend in Ohio during that period?
My mom was the finest person tat ever trod the earth.
She raised a slew of 7 hyper-intelligent (read: troublesome) kids and gave her values to all of us, wich we share in adulthood.
If DNA or anything else suggested there was no bio link it would mean exactly zero.
People who obsess on DNA are fools who don’t have any sense of values.
Has the Ferengi High Command frozen BHO’s birth records, too?
I have researched my genealogy, and I feel terrible for those who are legally disallowed to know their ancestry. I think that it should be everyone’s right to know that, as far as possible. (Sorry, Barak).
This will make abortion more attractive to many.
My two adult children are adopted . We assisted both in finding their birth parents and it was so freeing for both of them to finally have the answers to where they came from and what happened to cause them to be given up. We are still mom and dad plus grandma and grandpa to the next generation but the kids have developed healthy relationships with the birth families as well. While I must say it is a little different it is all good and I am happy for my children that they were able to open that door.
An adopted friend got a small inheritance a few years after finding her birth mother. The adopting parents soon had two children after her adoption.
what if the adopting parents do not want this to go forward?
what if it turns out there was a “paternity fraud scenario” where an unwed mother just lied and the father was in fact known. That will open up a 50 mess.
