I agree with you 100% sooner or late the truth will come out. Times were different back then, and honestly probably a lot of adopted children did not find out they were adopted until much later on in life. Now we see some of the drastic results from doing that. Maybe back then they felt this was a form of protecting the adopted child, or hiding the fact that a young mom was pregnant. Now times have certainly changed and we know a lot more about the feelings of adopted children. I agree with you in that the truth is always the best way and to view adoption as a most courageous and loving choice...not something that should be hidden. There are so many children's books now about adoption that can really help a child to understand just how much everyone loves them.
