Should an adopted adult have the same rights to identifying information about his or her origins as all non-adopted adults?

Yes.

Comment - since information about ancestry can be very important when assessing risk levels for various genetically-related diseases, it is important for prevention, early detection, and effective treatment of disease to be able to find such information where possible. As our knowledge of genetic factors increases, this will become even more important.

Should an adopted adult have the same rights to identifying information about his or her origins as all non-adopted adults?

I don't believe in government control period. When it comes to the records of adopted persons it should be able to be viewed by any adult in that position. To have a happy and truly free life a person deserves the right and should have the ability to know their family history.

They did not choose to give up their identity it was decided for them.
