Find Living Relatives

I'm currently going through the 'social' and they aren't that great, i can see why people turn to sites such as these to try and contact family.

I have been lied to for a start by these people who are supose to help me!

Flick with the greatest respect I have dealt with these people and they are not always the best ways to deal with some of these issues, if someone needs help and advice on this there is lot more they can do than just go to Norcap.

We should be encouraging people to use the proper channels.

And that's where the involvement of GR members should end

Adoption issues are incredibly sensitive, and should not be dealt with by people without specialised training.

We have had several adoption threads on GR a lot offering advice and help, but since the format of the different catergories has changed it would be a lot harder to keep this on the main page, unless it was constantly added too.

May be it would be something for genes to do they could add it to the boards summery with it's own title

;-) ;-)

Tracy the thread would disapear off the page in no time, what happens when it is 100+ pages long? who is going to look through that?

Use

Search trees,or Enter the name in the keyword (white box top of the page)

or try google

It would be fantastic As a mother looking for birth daughter and it would be alot easier and all adopted and birth family could look in one place :-D

It would be total chaos........sorry

No it will not work in my opinion

Most people who are looking for adopted siblings or children are normally new to the boards, so they would not hunt for a thread to add to

I don't know if this will work or not but there is an awful lot of adoption notices on here and if all their names were on one thread it would be easier to look on

Please let me know what you think and add the names of your family member

Good Luck in finding your family member ;-)
