[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think there should be some way to contact a neutral 3rd party and they reach out to the other side. if the feeling is mutual and both want to know about the other, then information is shared. [/b]

You get into tricky situations that are tricky when extended family is found but maybe not the birth mother or father. 
I do feel that men and women have a right for their medical information to remain private and the lats i looked a pregnancy was a medical condition. 
While i feel for the children who want to know where they came from, they have to respect that the mother/father chose not to have them in their life for a reason. Maybe financial, medical, situational, whatever. 
I don't think anyone has a right to know their biological family. Don't they get some background/medical information from the adoption agency about their biological parents? I know my cousin did (well my aunt/uncle did when they adopted her) they found out the bio mom was addicted to cocain, had diabetes and the dad's family had a history of alcoholism among other things. My cousin knows that medical history but does not know the people themselves (because it was a closed adoption)[/quote]

That exists in some states. It's called a confidential intermediary.[/quote]
