[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In general I think it’s a good thing. My kid is adopted though so would probably counsel her against it. If she wants to do it at 18 we will discuss the potential can of worms she may open. [/quote] Why would you counsel her against having connections with her genetic family and knowing more genetic information? You will always be her family but she has more family, too. She deserves to know her heritage and history and, if she chooses, to have connections to her relatives. Seriously, other than possessiveness, what would prompt you to counsel against this?[/quote] because she is the result of a sexual assault. Paternal family unknown. It should probably stay that way..[/quote] FWIW, my first sister was also conceived subsequent to rape. It has been difficult for her to know this, but that downside is far smaller than the upside she felt in connecting with her maternal family, [/quote]
