Cooperative Adoption

Question: Finding Siblings? My little brother was given up for adoption as an infant. Can anyone give me any information on how my sisters and I can find him. We have some information on him but not much. Our parents are not cooperative. He was adopted and born in Florida. Any help would be so wonderful. Thanks so much! There are 5 of us. We all have different Fathers, except for our only brother and myself. He and I have the same father and mother. Our Mother will not even speak about any of us. She doesn't even speak to us, period! Just some more information to help with my question. Thanks again! :) Devin's Mom, Thank you for this info! I have his birthday and place of birth but, we are unsure of his current name. Hi name was believed to have been changed since he was a few months old at adoption. I have done some searches but not sure if ones found are him. Thanks for the links.

Answer: Here is a link for Fl adoption registry, this is the first place that you should register your information. http://adoptflorida.com/Reunion-Registry… I will tell you that if he is not 18 years old yet he will no be permitted to register with the above site or any other until he reaches that age. FL will allow contact if there is a consent for contact in the file from the person being searched for. Here is a link that explains FL adoption search laws. http://laws.adoption.com/statutes/florid… If you do not have his birthdate and place of birth this will be a very difficult search because you will not have any information to register with. Your parents may be reluctant to give you information because when they relinquished him they were most likely told that they would never be allowed any contact. Adoption search and reunion laws are changing around this country and more adoptees are choosing to search for one reason or another. Do some research and explain to them that he may indeed one day want to need to find them and if they would reconsider their opinion. A good site to research and give you ideas on how to talk with them is. www.adoption.com I can tell you this. Fl can be a difficult place for adoption searches. Good luck!

Question: Why don't adoptive parents try to gather family medical history from the bio parents for their adoptive child? I see a lot of adoptees say that they want to track down their bio parents so they know their medical history. But that seems like it would be something important that an adoptive parent should do. I've always wondered about this... I'm considering adoption (not anytime soon--and not a newborn) and I thought to myself... I would consider medical history something I would need to know to give my (yes I know s/he isn't technically 'mine' but that is how my mind would work) child the best care possible. And if I do end up adopting I would try to contact the biological parents and ask them about it if I could. Heck, I'd probably try put together a box of information about the biological parents to give to my child when they would be able to understand it. Adoptive parents trying to meet the biological parents would also help the adoptive parents get a feel for how a reunion between the bio parents and the child would go. If the bio parents seemed like they'd be really mean in a reunion the adoptive parent could try to soften the blow (not stop their child from going--just let them know it might be rough somehow). Even if the bio parents were not pleasant or cooperative I would offer them money to at least the my child's medical history. In my opinion, something like that is just too important not to have. What do you all think?

Answer: Your premise is faulty. You assume that adoptive parents don't try to gather this information. All the adoptive parents I'm acquainted with have, indeed, attempted to garner all the information available. There are times when the bio-moms might not be too forthcoming with information. However, that's out of our control.

Question: Child support laws living in separate states? how does going about getting child support happen and other money that he owes me if i live in connecticut and he lives in nevada. we recently separated and i am trying to figure out how to do this rationally but he is not being the most cooperative person about the situation. he is telling me that if i dont come back to him he is refusing to pay back any money he owes me along with he is refusing child support and threatening to fight for custody out of spite and then putting the baby up for adoption.

I have my own cell phone plan in which he doesnt know the number and being 3000 miles apart has made it that much easier although i have noticed if i dont give him the answer he wants to hear he starts in, i have all of the text message records saved from when i seperated from him in.. roughly april until now and i have all of our bank records to bring to a lawyer.. but i have to apply for our divorce here even though we are legally married out there?

Answer: Skip the unwarranted separation step.......File for divorce in the county where YOU presently reside....Include all your stipulations. Check your local county web page. There are forms online as well. Once you've completed the forms, consult with an attny to ensure you've competed the forms properly. If you need and want what is due you, you need to make the effort to ensure that it happens. Please keep your wits about you. Most partners will say anything in the heat of divorce. Don't believe e/thing that he threatens. Good Luck! ♥♥
