[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I found a long-lost half sibling a decade ago. Not through DNA. We found it easier to meet one person at a time (there’s tons of us). It think it took 2 years to finish that process. He did individual therapy during it all. I’d recommend slowly meeting people rather than one big reunion. Also, [b]professional [/b]help. [/quote] Why? Why does every life event seem to need hand holding? [/quote] Don't be stupid and callous. Adoption has a very unique set of issues. OP, I agree with the poster show suggest 1 or so people at a time. I am part of the bug Catholic family who met our then young adult adopted out niece when she was in her late teens. Meeting everyone at once is not healthy and is overwhelming for the adoptee. Go on his timeline, not their timeline, even if it means never or waiting a long time.[/quote]
