Very true
I couldn't agree more. It seems common that birthparents think we should be secrets. With the passage of eight years from my reunion, I decided this was unnaceptable to me as a human being.
Although this isn't something to do in the first year, or maybe even first five or ten years of the very sensitive reunion with a birth mother, after some time has past these reunions can be made. If the adoptee is willing to accept possible conflict with birthparents, reunions with siblings should happen while we are still alive and hopefully healthy.
I know I don't speak for everyone, but I want to lend my support for those who are facing these issues. I am grateful that I was given birth and placed for adoption. Beyond that, I am a human being too. For those who feel similar, you have my experienced support.
