Getting Help From Your Adoptive Parents and Family

Getting Help From Adoptive Parents

In our prior post, Birth Mother Search – Obtaining Necessary Identifying Information-Part 2, we discussed (1) what non-identifying information is (2) why it is so important to obtain non-identifying information when searching for your birth mother.  (It provides identifying information!  )

Often, even after obtaining your non-identifying information, you may still need more ‘identifying information’ about your birth mother in order to successfully find her.  We understand that many adoptees are reluctant to discuss their search for their birth mother Read More

Testimonial – Do Not Waste One More Single Waking Moment – Begin The Search

“41 years is a long time, by anyone’s standards. It is also my age, which doesn’t feel like a long time. 33 years ago is ancient history to some folks. To me, it was just the number of years I knew I was adopted. My adoptive parents told me when I was seven. It was easy for me. I had the best parents, the best childhood, the best education. So, why complicate my life and others by trying to find my birth parents? I could live with the curiosity. And I did. Then all of a sudden, as if nothing else had occurred in my life, I was staring into the face of my daughter, barely one minute old. The gravity and reality of the decision my birth Read More

Birth Mother Search – Obtaining Necessary Identifying Information

A birth mother search can be quite difficult for an adoptee to successfully resolve.  That’s because most adoptees have very little identifying information on their birth mother when they begin to search. They also lack state-of-the-art search tools that are currently available to professional adoption researchers and investigative agencies such as OmniTrace.  These tools allow access to and the capability to sort through virtually millions of public records.  With the above mentioned search tools, you may be surprised to read that, in most instances, very little identifying information is needed to find your birth mother!  Provided here are a   Read More
