hey there, my name is mckenna, and I am 17 years old, as well, I was adopted at birth. I am currently talking to my birth mom off and on. I do feel bad because my adopted mom does get sensitive when it comes down to this particular subject. I know that she is always scared to "lose me" but I always remind her that I love her. She is the one that raised me and knows me. So yes you have every right to find her, but just remind your adpoted mother that you love her. And please feel free to e-mail me on what you do. I am looking for help as well.

Well, i agree with you and i feel guilty going behind my mom's back and looking at this site.. but i have a hole in my heart and if i could just see what my birth mom looks like, i will be satisfied.. i think every person needs that hole filled, and if that is how yours needs to be filed. go for it!

Hi, My name is Joann and I have given up a set of twins for adoption in 2003.
There are things you have to think about befor you make up your mind. One was it an open adoption and two was it closed, does you real mother want you to find her or not. I think you should have every right to find out about your other family and find out where you came from and what happened, who wouldn't.I would love for my twin boys to one day, any day want to see me. But maybe you mother gets upset because she is afraid something bad might happen and she might not want to see you upset either, if your mother wants to talk give her my e-mail address and if you want to talk you can e-mail me anytime, day or night!!!!
You take care, best of luck!!

Well you have every right to find you birth mom.You go for it girl!!!!!
But if you ever find your birth mom, dont forget about your adoptive mom. She has raised you and loved you for13 years. But still we think you should go for it. Good Luck!

I'm 13 and I was adopted @ birth. I want to find my family, but I dont want to hurt my mom every time I try to ask her about it we end up fighting is it so wrong to want to know the truth?
