[quote=Anonymous]I've read a lot of info on reddit from adopted children about doing this. It might help you to read some of it. The acceptance from bio parents is a real mixed bag. So it's fraught with emotional peril. From the outside it's clear that people long to know why they were given up for adoption and they want to know where their biological traits came from. As an adoptive parent, you aren't a primary source for those answers even if you have details. Also from the outside, we're getting further and further from the time when stable, middle class girls gave up their kids and remained anonymous. A lot of bio parents turn out to be dysfunctional. Including my good friend's oldest daughter's mom (open adoption). So kids may need even more love from their adoptive parents to deal with handling that. [/quote]
