Oren Adar and Mickey Ray Smith, who now live in San Diego, but adopted the boy in New York state, want both their names on his birth certificate.If this were 2004, John Kerry would be calling this a states' rights issue.
Agreed, but how do we reconcile this in regards to the CHILD in question? As far as I’m concerned tampering with legal documents such as birth certificates making it appear as if the information contained therein has never been altered is Unconstitutional in ALL STATES.
Simply leaving adoptees birth certificates the heck alone would very easily solve this problem, wouldn’t it?
My question would be, if they live in San Diego now, but adopted the child from New York what the heck do they need a Louisiana birth certificate for?
