Anonymous wrote:Wow so many harsh responses in this thread! Adult adoptee here, both birth parents deceased. Found that out via ancestry.com DNA test like OP. I did not contact any people that came up as close relatives and open the secret. 1/2 sibling contacted me first, she broke the news to the rest of them. I am significantly younger, they all suspected the father was cheating with a coworker. I am taking their lead, some want contact, others don't. Live far away, I am looking for nothing from them and which is probably why this is all progressing smoothly.
Prior to this I had read many articles regarding right to original birth certificate being a basic human right. I happen to agree with this. No one should be able to tell someone they can't have a document that is their own.
Thankful I don't come from a crazy bunch like the PP who sounds like she has some bad genes. That adoptee should run and run far.

Great we had the same bio father and you found us bc my brother posted his DNA without my and my mom’s consent. Stop trying to contact me on every social media platform. Deadbeat dad is dead, brother is an addict who disappears (like father like son!), and I don’t need anyone upsetting my mother with demenia.
I did get a restraining order bc she would just show up at my mom’s nursing home - thank god for security but she did make her cry the first time when she got through. She also came to my door. I had to delete all my social media, change my phone number,and move my mom to a different nursing home.
I’m sorry you want answers I don’t have. I told you this in a fb message, yet you didn’t stop. Stop requesting to come to holidays. I’m not your family.
From the other side. We owe you nothing.
Ugh...looks like the family you came from were all prizes, like you (), so, she is lucky. Pretty sure it was worth it to know that. Pretty sure.[/quote
Blame my awful father. My life has not been easy, and I’m left to take care of my mother without help. I really don’t need someone upsetting my ill mom who mentally doesn’t understand.
Don’t show up at my house and talk to my 6 year old DS.
If we tell you to stop please respect it.
Many of us are the lone caretakers - I am of my MIL. Big deal. Maybe this person if its true can be of help if that is her mother too.

Harsh, but real.
She was trying to blow up the family(?) but, hey, not your father who is actually the person in question here. No, she doesn't need a relationship with you or him, but she does deserve to get info. If you took it to court, she would be cautioned if she was harassing you. She wasn't. She was not a kook, but you are deluded. I doubt she was cautioned.
You can repeat this all you want, but that doesn’t make what you say right. The fact that you were adopted does not give you the right to enter others’ lives uninvited. 9 out of 10 times, you will catch a well-deserved backlash and you have no one to blame but yourself.

Wow, just wow. And, you wonder why your brother disappears.
