I just have a comment. I have spoken with a couple of families that have adopted domestically and they understood the importance of having as much information about their children's bio parents as possible. Their children have wondered who they looked like, where they got their curly hair from, did their bio mother or father love to play the guitar like they do. Our adoptive children with come with a genetic make up that we may or may not know anything about. I doubt I will get much information from our agency about our daughters family. I have our photo of our daughter with her bio mother from the DNA. We know she has two younger brothers. I want to have something because I'm sure someday down the road our daughter will have questions. No matter how good we are to her, no matter how much we love her, we assume she will have an interest about where she came from. I have a cousin that my aunt and uncle adopted when they lived in Alaska. He never had much interest in knowing about his bio mother and father. I have an aunt that was adopted and when she was a teenager she wanted to meet her bio mom. My grandparents new this woman and took my aunt to meet her. She also met 2 half sisters. She was glad to have had that opportunity but she never formed a relationship with them. It was beneficial since my aunt became diabetic and found out in ran in her bio mom's family. We have no idea what our future will hold with our daughter. Like most parents, we just want to try to prepare the best we can.
