hello, I was very much like you. I did not want to hurt my aparents and for years told them I had no desire to search or meet my birth family. I was very loyal and a very good daughter. I became very tired of that and it overcame my being the "good daughter". Here in the states, I was adopted during the closed era. this is before adoptive parents were given any information about the birth family and the records were sealed forever. Laws have passed here where we can obtain "non-identifying information". basic tidbits from our sealed records without names of course. So my aparents couldn't help me anyway. My adad passed away in 1992 and my relationship with amom is strained. Anyway, I know you are worried about your parents, but you do have every right to know this and find them. They will understand, they will still love you. I promise. Good luck!
