If you were given up for adoption would you?

Sarah

yeah
they created me and we would have shared dna and genes

i wouldnt go live with them or anything but knowing them would be cool alot of questions would be answered.

...if i were adopted that is

Kristah

Mark B

emb

Yeah I would - just to know my family history or 'roots'.

Knowing your family historys it good for medical records too.

Would also like to get both families involved though - so everyone would be happy.

I do know them. Unfortunately, I was 32 before I was able to reunite with my Mom (33 with my Dad) because the laws of the United States and of my state are outdated, anti-family, and treat me (and all adoptees) as second-class citizens and people to be feared and to hide from.

It's a sick, sick society that tries to make parents and their own children afraid of one another -- and to protect those who have perpetrated horrific atrocities against women and innocent children for many, many years.

I'm adopted, and I would not like to know when I'm older--I would like to know NOW.

kateiskate

I'm adopted. And yes I do.

cantstopLinnyG

I wanted to know my first parents and family my entire life.

I know them now, and we're making up for lost time.

Timara

i would love to know

just an opinion

Yes I would, but I'm not adopted. My boyfriend is, and he goes back and forth between whether he does or not. I just can't understand it, but then I have to tell myself that maybe he's afraid that what he would find would be worse than the way things are already.

everyone got a thumbs down. Guess someone doesn't like the question or the answer.

I would like to know my history from them. Not them as friends, but where I came from.

I am adopted and I think of my family that adopted me my real family.

I think that when a child is given up for adoption they should also be given a family history for medical reasons

I AM adopted and I'm on the fence (for myself, NOT others). I haven't searched but I still may. It doesn't consume my life by any means. Being adopted to me is like saying I have brown hair or blue eyes, its just part of who I am

If I had been given up for adoption no I don't believe I would want to know who they were. As it is I have no desire to ever search for or know anything about my biological father. My mother raised me on her own. I don't care to even know his name. I had a happy childhood and have a wonderful relationship with my mother. I don't feel like I am missing out on anything or have the desire to know anything about him or his family.

I was adopted. I know who both of my biological parents are, but i don't care to meet them. I only know the names because they were friends of my adopted family years and years ago. But i do not care to meet them. The way i see it is that my adopted parents are the ones who raised me from birth, therefore they are my parents biological or not.

niamh

I am adopted and no i do not want to know about them, as far as im concerned i have my family. the only family i need.

i dont know
yes
i would but i wouldnt let my adoptive parents feel as though im pushing them away because they brought me up and that would be mean.

The feeling to want to know and see your biological parents might always be in me but I may not act on it.

Adopted people may have this idea in their heads that their biological parents may and could have been better than their adoptive parents. "The grass is greener on the other side" type of a thing.

My older sister was adopted by my father when she was about 6. She never had that feeling that she needed something more, she needed to know her biological family because she felt that yearning and that there was something missing.

Her life felt full and as far as the both of them go, he IS and always will be her one and only father. Her biological father even tried to contact her but she refused to have anything to do with him.

She has her family and has no need to go looking for something or someone else is how she explained it to me.

If it were me, I'd feel the same as her.
