The case for adult adoptees to enjoy the same rights as other citizens is so clearly laid out here that one wonders how anyone could possibly misconstrue the facts to support their cause celeb of birth mother privacy. And yet they do. Or at least that is the red herring argument they use.
When you look closely, support for sealed records comes from and is financed by the adoption industry who apparently fears honesty and accountability in adoption will hurt profits.
There are a few who think a pregnant woman's has a choice is limited to adoption, abortion or a shotgun wedding. They must be blind or they have never visited a social services office and seen the number of single mother who are not only rearing their children but getting taxpayer support to do so.
Being unmarried is not the issue. Being ready to parent, is. The sad fact is that women who are unprepared to parent are highly likely choose abortion over a sealed adoption that means they will never know what becomes of their child. If adoption profiteers did not have skeletons in their closet they would embrace adoptee rights because it would probably increase their baby supply.
