Every voice of every adoptee blog here is speaking for the thousands of adoptees who are still children and not have found their voices, yet. Yes, every adoption experience is individual and different, but the range of human emotion knows no bounds.

Find Adoption Events 
I would like to say that as an adoptee who found out when I was 21 because my selfish sperm donor decided I should know. Well I didn’t. I wish I didn’t know. He walked away like a scumbag and someone else raised me and took time out that he didn’t have to just to be my dad. I am now 28 and my dad is who raised me and made me who I am today. My Sperm donor that gave me away at 5 is just that a sperm donor. So I think that Peter Carucci is doing what he should to keep people like me protected. My SD didn’t not find me through the State but on his own. I feel nothing for him. He should have just left me alone.
I’m not going to try to tell you that you shouldn’t be angry or have a right to your feelings or try to defend what you biological father did or did not do.
I can tell you that I find it sad that you did not know the truth the whole time and you had to be told at age 21. THAT would make me angry as heck. I can’t help but wonder if maybe some of the anger you feel towards bio dad isn’t misplaced anger in general? I’m betting that even suggesting that will get you angry at me, but it might be worth thinking about.
I am assuming this is a step dad / real father situation and your mom was constant? My husband was in he same boat as that and found out at age 17, but he was never leaglly adopteed by his step after, they just lied from the get go and put the step dads name on the OBC. I know he felt betrayed by his whole family because they all knew.
The thing is.. it might not have been so bad and made you as angry if you had always known. And that what Mr. Carucci and the old NYS laws are trying to do. Honestly, whther you like the guy or not, it’s YOUR truth and you had a RIGHT to know. You can still choose who in your heart is Daddy to you. And you can still choose who you have a realtionship with. Does Peter Carucci know you? Did he know this would work out for you or not? Did he ask? No, he doesn’t even choose to know the truth about the laws!
What you cannot change is your medical background. And someday, you might need to find your biological father for that alone. If you ever found yourself in a situation where you have a dying child who needs a bone marrow transplant, you might change the way you are thinking. Or if you find that you have breast cancer and your medical insurance refuses to test you to see if your daughters carry the gene, then it might be better to know the real truth.
The fact is you can’t change the truth no matter what we would like. Your Dad is not biologically realted to you no matter how much you might love him. You carry another man’s genes. No one has or had the right to alter your truth.
Thanks for a great list of adoption blogs! Would love to be on it! Thanks again and again!

WP, you are listed and in the feed! Blog on sister!
I am an adult adoptee whose parents were honest with me from the get go. I reunited with my birth family at age 25. I am also an adoptive mother to 6 children and 3 embryos. One of which became our precious 8th child! Feel free to add my blog to your roll. http://www.handsheartsquiverfull.com
Great Blog! My partner Carol found out in her late 40′s from a cousin that she was adopted. She is now 52 and meeting her mother for the first time in June. She has started her blog – for healing of course – but she is such a terrific writer I thought you might like to list her blog as well. She will be expanding it to include resources for others. It’s her intention to strike a balance between her emotional journey and providing help and resources for others as they move along their journey as well. Her blog is Adoptee for Life located at: http://adoptee4life.com. Thank you. Margie
