People think that LGBTs adopting children will hurt them, but it's not being in loving homes that hurts children most.

Laws forbidding adoptees from accessing their original birth certificates are outdated and need to be changed today.
Being denied their original birth certificates isn't just a problem for adoptees. It's a social problem, requiring social change.
Adoptees deserve open records because deception and partial truths do not set us free.
What matters most is not 'what' you are, but 'who' you are.
Adoption isn't just a childhood experience, it's a life-long experience.
It's illegal to deny people their records due to race or gender. Adoptees deserve the same rights and protections.
Adoptee rights are everyone's rights, and they deserve to be protected.
If the system were designed to protect adoptees, why do so many have to fight for their rights?
