I just got back from the mandatory six month meeting with the psychiatrist today.
I actually think the system is set up in a way that's ethical. It's good that kids can find their biological relatives. When you look at adopted kids, some people really want to find their biological relatives and others never do. It's good that they will now have that option. However, the system is also completely non-functional as a result of all this close administration and the complete absence of an advertising budget.
If I ever do manage to have a kid - if! if! - I plan to join the WA reproductive technology council and lobby for a serious budget to advertise for donors.
