MODERATORS
We're not dealing with kids though, these nutters want every damned adult unaware of their adoption status to have their worlds mandatorily blown apart.
Idk, I've 3 siblings not raised by this man, and we all would rather know, than not. Honesty, I feel, is important in human relationships.
I'd be interested to hear from someone who wishes they didnt ever find out they were adopted. Im sure people like that exist.
Should the government get involved? I personally don't think they should, but, an interesting social concept to discuss.
Thisbisn't a thought experiment , these are people's lives
Psychologists are pointing out the massive damage this would cause just dumping on people as adults without their request "Hey, you're adopted" and for...what, exactly?
Their recommendations to build a framework to make it easier for people who want to know to find out is far saner.
