I had no birth name and I have never been able to find out any further info on my biological parents. I am 29 and still my search is weak. The adoption agency changes the info I ask for each time I call. What does that tell you? Where are the laws for my rights as an adoptee who can't get a bit of honesty on the NON IDENTIFYING info from the adoption agency? Adopttes like me are left helpless with little or no correct info, while other are searching with a birth name and some type of birth parent leads.....

Thank you! This actually did help me. Several years ago I was very frustrated with the system and gave up on trying to "really" find out who my parents were. Through odd circumstances and coincidences I think I know who they are. I wanted my original birth certificate so I could be 100% sure. Now I know that it may be possible to attain it. Thank you this gives me hope!

Look I don't know how to get a hold of you. I write a blog on adoption. I am a Texan but was born and adopted in Indiana. I want to do what I can to change the law here since it looks like it might be easier. Then I want to change Indiana's law. I am going to join TxCare tomorrow. My blog addy is http://www.amyadoptee.blogspot.com/ My email addy is amyburt40@yahoo.com. I want to forever change the laws on adoption.

This law is basically useless to older adoptees. We had sealed adoptions and have no clue as to the identity of either parent. Just exactly who does this law help. Not me! We need to know where we came from and who we look like, and if we can't have that, at least we should have access to our family's medical history. Obviously this law was intended to make Rick Perry feel better not adoptees.

Hi ACP your heading NEW LAW! NEW POST! was quite thought provoking. I have been looking at sites to do with child diabetes being a parent myself a few times over and a member of various child support groups I often find myself needing a little help with childrens issues that can crop up from time to time. I recently found a site that is chockas with links on the subject of child diabetes It takes a little searching through the many directories that it has but some of the links are great and have helped me heaps, beats searching through the search engines. Anyway Luv your blog keep it up!

I would like to say that I can't see how the new law helps adoptees who do *not* know the names of their birth parents. Without this crucial information, we are still in the dark regarding our birth parents' names, as well as, in some cases, our own names at birth.

I am fortunate, in that I do know my birth name, but I wasn't born in Texas, I was born in New York state.

So, what does the new law do for me, and others like me? It's of no use to anyone without their birth parents' names, and it angers me that we still have to jump through hoops to get that information, despite the new law.
