Ideas pertaining to adoption reform and political action are encouraged.Stop Sealing and Falsifying Adoptees’ Birth Certificates
Unconditional Access for Adoptees to an uncensored and certified copy of their currently sealed Original Birth Certificates is only part of the solution: No Parental Permission Required, No Intermediaries, No Compromises. Adoptees’ and Natural Parents’ Civil and Human Rights have been Compromised for too many decades.
...
“Amended Birth Certificates are Falsified ‘Live Birth’ Certificates and are Truly State-Sanctioned Identity Theft of Adoptees and Our Children After Us” (quote by Peach).
...
Stop the legal practice of issuing false Live Birth Certificates to adoptees by correctly documenting Birth and Adoptions. The Netherlands tells the truth in Birth and Adoption Records and so can the United States. Amended Birth Certificates in adoption need to be declared NULL and VOID.
...
Something is fishy between International Agencies: While the United Nations, through UNICEF, promotes registering every child’s birth, The Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption REQUIRES a ‘new’ (amended and false) Live Birth Certificate for every child who is adopted. Why the contradiction in legal policy, especially coming from The Hague, in The Netherlands, a country that has never had sealed nor falsified birth certificates?
...
Parents who use Anonymous Sperm, Eggs or Embryos are not yet legally required to tell the truth on their Donor-Conceived child's Birth Certificate in the USA. Donor-Conceived Individuals deserve true Birth Certificates with full disclosure of who are the Donor-Parents. ... Honesty is a Family Value.
...
End child creation by Artificial Reproductive Technologies. End child abduction and child identity theft by ending adoption.
...
Adoptions are being phased out in Australia, why not in USA?Caution: Anti Adoption
- If you are here to learn, or to expand on the topics presented, that's great. Pithy comments, opposing viewpoints and debate are expected.
- Myths, taboos, and distorted opinions will be challenged with facts.
- Each adoptee and parent of adoption loss has a unique perspective. We can be blunt, sarcastic and sardonic.
- Exposing raw reality is painful.
- If you do not like what you read here, do not use this website.
- Comment moderation is in place for the protection of valid website users.
- Cyber bullying and stalking, malicious defamation of character, libel and slander, are prohibited by law. Violators will be prosecuted.1 Birth Certificate + 1 Adoption Certificate = Adoption Truth

We Need Universal Standardized Birth Certificates and Adoption Certificates in America
How did I get my Original Birth Certificate?
My natural father gave my OBC to my adopting parents when he relinquished me to them in 1956. My adoptive mother threw my birth certificates and adoption papers at me when I was 18 years old just days after I was found by siblings she did not want me to ever know.Why I Promote Adoption Reform:
Even though I have had my OBC in my possession since 1974, I am still legally banned from receiving a certified copy of my true birth certificate from New York State.
...
and
...
My legal birth certificate says I was born to a woman who actually adopted me. All adoptees have legally falsified birth certificates.
...
and
...
All adoptees should have unrestricted access to their certified and true birth certificate.
...
and
...
Automatically issuing falsified birth certificates upon the finalization of adoption should be illegal. Falsified birth certificates should be replaced by truthful Certificates of Adoption.
...
and
...
All natural parents should receive a birth certificate for the daughter or son they created and gave birth to.
...
and
...
Siblings should never be permanently separated by adoption.
...
and
...
Adoptive Parents should never lie to their adoptees about the serious truth of one's birth and existing siblings, and all known details of that adoptee's life, including the knowledge of parental death for timely and appropriate grieving.
...
and
...
Adoption should be replaced by Family Preservation and Guardianship. See Website Pages under "Adoption Prevention" for more info.Why do you have to be so negative? Aren’t the children better off?”
“This ‘better off’ argument is like justifying a rape because it produced a healthy baby. When the rich of the world use their power and money to take away the children of the poor, it is a crime, not a humanitarian act. “The ‘see no evil’, the ‘children are better off’ attitudes of the adoption community make the adoption system vulnerable to systematic child trafficking schemes.”
- - - David M. Smolin, an adoptive father and Law & Ethics Professor at Samford University, Cumberland School of Law, in Birmingham, Alabama, USA.
Practice Adoption Prevention
Help save a family and a child’s place in that family by practicing Family Preservation. ... End the Legal Practice of Taking Another Parent's Child as Your Own. ... Closed or Open Adoption is Identity Theft, Family Theft, and Kidnapping.For Families in Crisis, Promote these Priorities:
1 - Family Preservation
2 - Reunification
3 - Kinship Care
4 - Guardianship
