On the other side of adoption
I don't know exactly what the rules were or what sort of adoption it was (pretty sure it was closed), but my father and another woman had a little boy four years before I was born and then put him up for adoption. I've always wanted to meet him, but am not allowed to contact him. He's over 18 now and I know he's allowed to contact me (but doubt if he will). My question is, when I turn 18 and we're both technically adults, do the rules go away and I can find him? My whole life I've wanted to meet him. I'm the oldest in my family and have always dreamed of having a big brother and I'd really just like to see him, even once, but I don't know if it's legal or not.
Any help you have would be greatly appreciated, Alex

Once you’re both adults you are free to search for each other…sometimes even with the assistance of the state.
