Hi
I am also adopted but my parents told me when I was very young, so I feel that I always knew. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. I didn't think much of it growing up. However when I hit my twenties, I decided I wanted to know who my birth parents were. I admit I was curious and I did want medical information as well. I went through family services and got some info on my birth mother and her family. It turned out that I had several sisters and a brother as well. I have met my birth mother, 2 sisters and I have written to the brother. I haven't really kept in touch with the mother. I find it awkward because my "real" mother is still alive. She says she is okay with it but I know she feels threatened. I am in touch with one sister though. It feels good to know I have one. I grew up with one brother who is also adopted. I understand how you feel. With my birth sister, and mother it is weird to meet people who actually look like you. I have always been told that I look like my adopted family but when I met my birth family I was shocked. Good luck with your choices and I hope you find what you're looking for.

Well firstly I believe you are very narrow minded and illogical in feeling lost.

Your biological parents did not NURTURE for you, and your adoptive parents brought you up and loved you and gave you a life...by saying lost...you are throwing dirt in their faces...they are your mother and father...not your bilogical parents who left you...for what ever reasons it may be...the fact remains...your adoptive parents are the ones who put you to sleep...give you that love...if you say you are lost...then you are stupid...

No harm done finding out who your biological parents are in terms of knowing the truth and the adventurious thought of it. But do not feel lost...you would be lost if you was abondened in the middle of nowehere...

Love whom brought you up...

How does meeting your bilogical parents lets you find out who you are? What you need to know that you descend from the French, Europeans, etc.

You know who you are, but there is no harm done in finding out who your actual parents are, but saying you are lost is a slap in the face for your adoptive parents. They made you, and gave you that chance to make yourself. Stop making them sound not worthy in an INDIRECT WAY.

I am assuming that you are adopted yourself? You don't mention it.
