[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember once as an adoptee trotting out the "You're not even my real mom" when I wanted to hurt my adoptive. But I always felt and still feel that she is my true mom. I did just find out the identities of my birth parents through Ancestry DNA. And I have to admit that having that history now, and seeing the incredible family resemblance in photos, is important to me. I did supress my desire to find my birth family when my adopted parents were alive. I also now have a host of new siblings and cousins to connect with. Do not contact because you do not know the circumstances of your adoption. Chances are excellent that your birth mother never told her husband or other children. You could be the result of rape. Leave them alone. I put a child up for adoption who was the result of rape and I did tell my husband but nobody else. I have no desire to ever see child result of rape. [/quote][/quote]
