I gave up my son for adoption to protect him from his father who was very violent how do i find him now?

Please let me apologize on behalf of some of the answerers here who have been so rude to you.

I am an adoptee and would have been absolutely thrilled if my mother had found me

Changes to the law in Dec 2005 allow for all members of the birth family to have access to the adoption records and make contact with their lost loved ones. All the information you need is on this site:

Best of luck, I hope all goes well.

You can register yourself as "willing to be found" in case he is looking for you.
Go back and speak to the Fostering & Adoptions Office at Social Services and ask the procedure. If they are being unhelpful, Citizens Advice Bureau can advise.
From the beginning of this month, Friends Reunited is now completely free.

There are various agencies available that will claim to help you. Not all of these can and will so be weary,

The salvation army are a good start if the social services can not help you. I have spoken with people whom have had excellent support from them.

Also your child will be about 22 now. You could also try the records office or the registry office where the child was registered,

There are a lot of support groups whom can help you, sent you a link to a few.

Try the Salvation Armey.

good luck with your search.

You might consider placing an ad in the area you think he was raised. Back when he was given up, there wasn't near as much help for single moms to get away from abusive people. There weren't nearly (and still aren't) enough shelters. It seems even harder in these days, because of the internet! If you went through an agency, or attorney, you might try there, to see if he wants to have contact (many adoptees do). I don't think people realize how dangerous some abusive men (and women) can be, especially if they are involved with alcohol or drugs, and that you had no choice to survive than to give your son a safer home. I hope you haven't fallen into the trap of continuing to date abusive men (a lot of women do!). Good luck, and say a prayer. Maybe it might help!

Im sorry. Good luck.

you might be able to access his file from your countys hall of records (i think thats where you go) but i dont think you'll be able to find out anything. you might be able to find out what foster agency he is through and that would be a starting path but if you lost all custody rights to him you might have to wait til hes 18 to do anything or to see him.

I don't know too much about adoption, but how old was your son when you gave him up? If he was just a baby, maybe it's better off that you don't try to find him, as his adoptive family maybe treating him like their own biological son, and your sudden appearance may do more harm than good.

However, if he is old enough to see why you did what you did, I'm sure that you can always put an ad somewhere and explain why you are searching for him and letting him know that his biological mom loves him and has never stopped thinking of him.
