Widespread direct-to-consumer genetic testing and family databases mean that anonymous adoption, and sperm and egg donations no longer exist. Parents should share accurate biological information with their children before they someday learn this information from an online DNA matching site.
You may find out when you learn that you have 50 matched half-siblings who are a decade older than you are in your DNA family tree.Did your sister place a child for adoption when she was in college, and your family never knew about it?You may learn that history when you find a niece you never knew existed in your matched relatives.
It is clear that adoption agencies and sperm and egg donation facilities must immediately change their consent processes to eliminate the word ‘anonymous’ and replace it with language that accurately reflects our new DNA reality.The problem, of course, occurs with all parties who consented to a process they believed would be anonymous, which is no longer accurate.
