For my 11th birthday, I asked to be adopted.
Adoptees deserve open records because deception and partial truths do not set us free.
Adoption isn't just a childhood experience, it's a life-long experience.
If the system were designed to protect adoptees, why do so many have to fight for their rights?
It's illegal to deny people their records due to race or gender. Adoptees deserve the same rights and protections.
A role model is a person whose roles can be modelled. If the roles you conceive and give birth to today cannot be adopted by anyone in your absence, you are no good model.
Being denied their original birth certificates isn't just a problem for adoptees. It's a social problem, requiring social change.
Adoptee rights are everyone's rights, and they deserve to be protected.
Laws forbidding adoptees from accessing their original birth certificates are outdated and need to be changed today.
Blood can help make family, but family often transcends blood.
Technology has to be invented or adopted.
