Even in those cases they were willing to provide information and were very thankful to know that the adoptee was alive and well.

I know that the case that I know of, it was never the right time to tell one particular child. They have some strange issues anyway, but he doesn't know.
Her husband & daughter know but due to the circumstances of having this child it was a hard thing to discuss.
In the UK its much harder to find someone due to the data protection act but she's partially tried to make it easy for him to find her. The birth name is unusual.... he's still not made contact but she has said that never a day goes by when she doesn't think of him, but since he's not made contact she hopes that he's happy & settled in his new life.
