[quote=Anonymous]NP. I would also add that we counsel people who are seeking their birth parent(s) to have low expectations. Low expectations of being welcomed, well-received, or of people disrupting their family structure or holidays or even routines to suddenly include you. We actually counsel only annual meet-ups as a starting place - not calls, texts, family events, vacations, hosting guests with various extended family members. Besides feelings that could get hurt - of all involved - but very rarely does the average elderly parent or adult sibling have the toolbox or time to process things or develop a new norm or even want or need a new norm. Paternity tests are the only way to start, particularly if one or both birth parents are deceased or denying things.[/quote]
