Have you been affected by New Zealand's adoption practises?

If you were affected by the NZ Adoption Act 1955 as a mother, father, adopted person or other family member, if it isn't too difficult and too upsetting, would you be able to write/type your story out?  We are collecting experiences and stories of those who have been affected by the policies and practises of the Adoption Act 1955. We are doing this to show it was more widespread than a few families and who was involved outside of parental pressure. If you feel you can do that and would like to be a part of something, please let me know via email.

Names can be given as aliases and all information will be kept confidential.  Please contact for further information.
