Dickons posted on another thread an interesting question . . . do you know Adoptee Rights in Indiana?? I didn't, but I certainly havent' ever though that sealing of the records when the Adoptee becomes of age is a good idea. Sometimes that seems to be the impression of the "angry adult adoptee" I guess, it would seem that is what is implied , what are your thoughts as an Adoptive Parent? Whether a Fostercare Adoption, as a lot of ours here are or a Private Adoption I believe all kids will someday wonder who, how, when and what. My own father died when I was very young and I have always said, good, bad or ugly if I had known or had the ability to know him/who he was, I believe I would have been a very different person today.

I'm all for it. As my kids get older they need a good connection from somewhere in their birth family. I'm praying that birth mom is significantly better by the time they are old enough and want to get in touch with her. I fear that she will not be and will not even want to see them. I got in touch with her parents a few years back asking for medical info and they ignored my request.
I am a strong advocate for a healthy open adoption. We will have an open adoption with our little guy. We are hoping that we can keep it positive.
