Adopted People Have Two Birth Certificates | Marilyn Mendenhall Waugh | TEDxTopeka

[@RiversongMT]

As an adoptee, the problem with not having legal access to your original birth certificate across several states, is that you may have difficulty getting a passport, as well as problems with many other issues which require that legal record of your own birth. Vital Records such as your BC are needed to get a marriage license, to obtain photo IDs or a social security number, or register to vote, etc. Not every adoptive parent has even told their child they are adopted, which can have serious consequences for teens & adults who don't know the truth (mentally/emotionally or even physically). Many birth parents don't want to be found, and want their identity kept a secret. That said we should all have the right to know where we came from, and if we have any siblings, etc. For those who don't have any idea who their biological family is it may have an direct impact on your health and lifespan, where inherited conditions exist. This matters not only for yourself, but also for any child you may have as well.

Identity is an issue. I am adopted and had sufficient time between being born and being adopted that I developed a detachment disorder. I'm 57, so when I was born schools, parents, did not know about this. So I was just a difficult kid, i was never diagnosed with RAD until I saw more info coming out on RAD in last 10 years. Detachment is a very damaging dis-functionality to have as it removes many or most of the characteristics that society values highly, relationships, asset accumulation, family, community etc. Without these values its hard in the mainstream world!

[@susancunningham5847]

I was adopted and after both of my adoptive parents had died, my children found my birth parents. One of the big surprises in meeting them was finding out that my birthdate was not accurate on my birth certificate. Using my amended birth certificate has never been a problem for me, but prior to listening to this, I had had the same idea - we should have a birth certificate and an adoption certificate; adoption certificates should be allowed for use in all the same legal transactions. I have mixed feelings about making original birth certificates available to everyone at 18 - my biological parents were thrilled to meet me, but that is not always the case and I do think to encourage adoption over abortion you need to give some identity protection to birth parents. It's tricky, but one thing is certain - the current method doesn't work.

Your birth certificate is your registration and contract as a corporate entity that places you under rules outside of common law. In order to do business with your corporate government you must be a corporate entity as well. This is the beginning of the process of your enslavement.

[@neighborhoodsoulutions3317]

The Amended version is the “birth” of a second legal person that is securitized since they have legal guardianship through the state. That’s why the date is different. There are actually 3 versions. 1. Certificate of live birth (aka the long form), 2. the birth certificate and 3. the Amended. The GmEI Utility trades those entities as for-profit federal “employees.” Bonds can then be created and more $ can be made for the beneficiary, which is you…. unless you are unaware that you are the beneficiary, then they will claim it as abandoned after 7* years. It is presumed in court that they are now the beneficiaries because no one ever stepped forward to claim the “estate,” which is evidenced through the birth certificate. The evidence is in USC 363 (and 363.6). See definition for “minor.” You are still considered a minor because you have not taken control of your “securities” - your BC. It’s an arduous process.

My husband has a Certificate of Birth that was issued to his adoptive parents in 1957 (3 years after he was born) at the time of his final adoption in Detroit Michigan. A few years ago he tried to get a passport bc we wanted to take a cruise. The Post Office (Passport Acceptance Agency) accepted all the paperwork. It was returned to him saying the date of his birth and the date on his Certificate if Birth didn’t match even though he had all the original legal adoption papers included. Now my husband is retiring and we want to travel. I guess it’s time to figure this Patriot Act out. We know one of his birth parents is dead. So far we haven’t even been able to find anyone who even knew his mother existed. It seems as if 2 generations have now passed. She was found on a 19030 census purely by accident as a 3 year old. If she is alive she would be 94 years old. I’m not sure my husband will be able to get a passport now.

You can get the original with a court order in the State of Michigan. You have good cause to get one.

Last year, my father gave me an envelope with my original birth certificate and a few months after he gave me another one! 🤔 it’s seemed odd to have two! Why would I need two? I was naive to it so I just tucked them away in a safe place. Recently I had to use my birth certificate for some jobs I was applying for and upon showing my birth certificate, they told me I needed original, not amended birth certificate. I didn’t understand what they meant by amended until I looked up what it meant! I am in complete shock! When I was a young girl mind you, I’m 57 years old now one of my aunts who is deceased already always told me that there was a family secret and she would constantly repeat it to me I was her favorite closest niece she was my mom‘s sister, a lot of people tell me that I look different than my siblings I’m the only one with colored eyes and light complexion and blonde hair.I also remember when I was a young girl my father would tell me I was adopted I was about four years old when he started telling me that up until I was 12 years old and now looking back those words come to my mind you were adopted you’re adopted you’re adopted ! finally when I was old enough I asked him daddy was I really adopted he said I was just kidding you I said why would you kid like that?” He never gave me an answer.”I just looked at this KZbin on amended birth certificates and the meaning behind it I do have two certificates an original and an amended one oh my God I’m realizing perhaps I was adopted ! How do I find out? I just found out my dad has cancer!🥲😩I don’t want to do anything to upset him, but I know he has the answer to my delicate question! I plan to go to the county record office this week to get my answer. I feel confused with this , perhaps this is the family secret My Aunt was taking about but never told me about! What now? Can somebody give me some sound advice on what I should do?

Hate to break it to you but the TWO Birth Certificate theory doesn't fully hold up. My (under 18) birth mother was transported over state lines (illegal in the 1960's) & across country (from NY to California) & gave birth under my adopted mother's name (unsure if under duress or willingly). California is a closed records state, so no luck on that avenue. Only recently (going on 3 yrs) found out I was adopted & unfortunately the people with answers are dead for the most part (the ones still alive refuse to talk).

Watching this again I note another huge discrepancy concerning why an adoptee is often refused a passport, and that is simply because on the amended certificate there quite possibly is no city, county/state/country listed. On my ABC (that's a new anacronym we have not heard before) it simply says 'born in the continental limits of the United Sates'... I laugh at the statement because the judge had no way to know where I was born nor did the state or the adopters. Odd that in 1982 when I applied for passport, nothing was made of the fact that my ABC was produced 5 1/2 years after I was born, signed by the judge who decreed the adoption to be final on Aug 15,1950 and in which that only true unadulterated fact on it was my own DOB. Both the ABC and the initial application for a passport was well before the events of Sep 11, 2001. Nor has Soc Sec or other Agencies ever questioned the information on the .ABC-including the US Navy in 1963... Let's cut to the chase: Adoptions need to be abolished, period. Our identities need to be retained and all of our documents unadulterated and accessible under the rights of the14th amendment (equality under the law, not merely for some but for all! . Where we cannot be with our own parents, we need to be placed under guardianship with someone of our own kith and kin-not stranger from the street who shares no cMs with us or we with them. Siblings MUST be KEPT TOGETHER. Left out of any of the TED narrative, as it is in all other discussions about retrieval of OBCs, is the issue of the adoptee not born in the state of adoption. Save for 2 states that expressly refer to the absent OBC NOT being available, we of this group are often SOL, without even a 'sorry we are unable to help you locate your record'. The OBC is only in the state of birth... no parent intending to abandon their child carries an incriminating document,, in fact, birth certificates are not often carted about when individuals traveled. Any watching this TED talk or reading the comments need to acquaint themselves about not only adoption, but about the trauma, of being separation from the mother and other DNA family and other adverse effects; also one should learn about relinquishment of infant -how it is enable and the harm done to the mother and child in consequence. While you ar at it, read about ACE scores (adverse childhood experiences) and how they affect adoptees ...

Isn't the whole point that these sates were trying to find ways to address the issue of parents who choose not to tell their child that they are adopted?? Not saying they have done well or poor, just that many parents make this choice and, again, Idk if it's right or wrong, but it's their choice for their family and it deserves considerations to protecting their choice. ... I meant to squeeze the rights of the birth parents to not be found in there, also. She doesn't address any of it though. It's like she thinks they are just goofy laws from incompetent lawmakers. Also, passports are national, vital statistics is state; this means you are a citizen of your state first, and only if you can establish yourself as a legal citizen of a state can you then deal with the Fed, when it comes to passports, anyway. So there is no reason to have national synchronization, the states do it the way they want, it was agreed to for vital statistics a long time ago, so the fed doesn't have to do it, cz it goes with other sets of laws, like marriage and adoption to begin with, which are all state. So she needs to analyze the culture and history of each state and take her case to each state individually if she wants progress, and she hasn't even thought about the issue enough to realize the importance of people's privacy rights, sooo peace
