Absolutely, 100% yes.
children should definitely have the right to know of where they came from!
Adoption doesn't erase the fact that this child has a mother and a father who created them, a mother who carried them, nurtured them, gave birth to them and who is still their first mother. now not at any younger age but once 18 they should have the right. the reason for an older age is because they'll be emotionally prepared for the acceptance or rejection they may fall into. Adoption doesn't take away the mother's love for them, or the connection that naturally exists between them. That "information" - that connection - does not belong to anyone else to *decide* if an adoptee has the right to it. It doesn't belong to the state, to the court or to any adoptive parent. Adoptive parents don't replace the first parents, and - IMHO, don't have the right to keep that information from their child.
