finding adoptive parent
Well I'm sixteen, female, and I'm adopted, apparently I can't even begin to look for my real parents until... I'm 18?
And I think thats stupid. I'm afraid that it will be incredibley hard/expensive to find them too, is anyone on here adopted and found their biological parents? what did you have to do to figure it out, and what not?
thanks.

The rules of adoption differ by state.
Right now i actually am ion the process of trying to find my boyfriend's birth parents.
Unfortunately though, unless your parents have that information to share with you, since you are only 16, there isn't much you can do to get that kind of information.
Unfortunately as well, (now remember, this differs by state), to give you an example with my bf, as an 18 yr old he could only get nondisclousure papers regarding his adoption. And as a 21 yr old, if there is permission from he birthparents for their information to be giving, he could retrieve it. But i believe that if not, he needs to put in a court order, to be able to get these papers. But he would need a grave reason to actually be granted such information.... =/ Its not impossible nor really expensive to do. The main thing to do, is search the laws of adoption for your state, and go from there =)
Best of luck! =)

It's not wickedly exspensive. If your birth parents gave permission for you to learn about them when your 18, the adoption agency will give you the number most likely. If your birth parents didnt give you permission to learn about them when your 18...then, most likely theirs not much you can do about that. Hope I helped!
