The reality is that parenting is parenting, by birth or by adoption and that both moms would say no to something that would endanger the child. Most adoptive parents, professionals in the field and others support open records and advocate raising a child to know about adoption from a very young age. Adoption is no longer a secretive, closed door activity. It has come into the mainstream and people deal with it as a part of life, a way of forming a family. Not unlike divorce, homosexuality and other areas it has progressed in the 90s and into 2000.
Open records are a fight with the government for the fair right to know.
