[quote=Anonymous]A big part of the issues is not knowing family history. Either the birth parents don't know as they are young/never cared or choose for what ever reason not to disclose. If your family you generally know drug/alcohol use, depression, mental health, learning disabilities. I knew the risks going into it due to my background but I don't think people truly get the impact of drug/alcohol use or some mental health issues that are genetic. We were pushed into situations like bipolar which I was not comfortable with as there is a high probability it can pass through the blood line. The "professionals" often push situations onto families who agree out of desperation and don't really understand the long term.[/quote]
