I was adopted in 1981 by a family in Wilmington Delaware. I was 9 months old. I really don't know a whole lot about my birth parents. I would love to meet them and know them but it's too expensive. I'd love to hear your story about adoption or if you have any ideas about a cheap way to locate a birth parent please share them.

thats cool luckily for me my real dad lived only one house over from where he grew up. but i was about 5 when my step dad adopted me also and 13 when i figured it out just wish my parents would have been a lil more opened about it so i wouldnt have resented them as much

ok well if you do a search for free adoption regestries in whatever state u live in you may be able to find something for free cuz that is how we found my husband biological father granted it took a whole lot of time and patience but i finaly found him lol. My hubby was adopted when he was 18 months old by lucily two of the nicest people i know from what his parents tell us it was for the best and i was without knowing it adopted by my step-dad i never newhe was my step dad or that i was adopted untill i was 13 and thats when i discovered that my daddy wasnt my biological one and it didnt go well lots of resentment towrds my parents for never telling me b4

Thanks I'll try that. I'm glad that your hubby found his biological father. And I'm sorry for your not knowing that your step dad wasn't really your dad. That sucks

I was adopted when I was only a few days old. I have a great mom and dad. I had a very happy childhood. My biological aunt found me when I was 22 yrs old.
We had some contact, I met her children and talked to her sister who was my birth mother. We talked on and off for a few years. And then after I had my daugher, we just kind of lots touch. They live so far away, it was hard to keep in touch.

Wow but at least you got to meet her. And her family. Good for you. I really wish I could find them.
