WHEREAS: The child's right to know, supersedes private agreements made long ago by his or her parents;

WHEREAS: The child was not a party to these agreements;

BE IT RESOLVED THAT: When a child comes of age and assumes his or her full rights and responsibilities as citizens of the United States, all documents pertaining to the child's origins and/or identity should be made available to the child upon request. (by David T. Gray)
