I would never criticise anyone for giving a child up for adoption but I also thoroughly agree with the columnist Janey's quoted - I think suggestions that anyone should pretend to be something other than a sibling are bordering on offensive. There is nothing grubby about being an adoptee - I would advise anyone to act with thoughtfulness but with honesty. We all know our parents have lived lives other than as our parents and although of course news of a unknown sibling can be a shock, I've never personally known of anyone being devastated by it.
