I am 18 years old and I am now looking for my biological mother. How do I go about that if I know nothing of my parents at all?

Were you adopted? If so, the adoption agency should have some records that may assist you. Additionally, you should be attempting to acquire your original birth certificate, this should provide you with the name.

Yes I was adopted. I was adopted at 7. Is there a website that mite help me or anything else?

There are a few out there, just Google search. You don't know the name of the adoption agency?

No I have no ideal of the agency. Unless you are talking about the Foster home name?

The foster home name is a start. Basically you need to start looking back to all the people and places you were, ask these people to help you identify your birth parents. If you were in foster care, there has to be some kind of written record of where you came from, this is where I would start.

How do you find a foster home if you do not even know the location. I am latin from Puerto Rico and my boyfriend is trying to help me find my biological parents. THe ideals that I have is that it is either in Puerto Rico or Florida. The foster homes are called: Children Home Society and Hands in Action.

So start with those names. You may have to put in a great deal of foot work to run them down, but if you just start making phone calls, ask them if you were ever in the home.

Another option is this, if you were born in the US, there will be a birth record. Assuming your name has remained unchanged since birth, you can do a State to State search for your birth record.

Try this website. Intelius People Search - Public Records, Background Checks & More

I have had luck locating people from my past, but I also had a great deal of info to assist me. You will have to spend a little bit of money, but it could help.

Actually my last name has changed. I Know that my last name before was Navies but I am not so sure. Well even if I was born in puerto rico I should have a real birth certificate that the US can have use as well right?

Yes, when you were brought to the US, a birth cert would have been placed on record as proof of your idenity. Were you made a US citizen?

Yes I am a US citizen. Well that is what I was told. They let me in a federal ground school. I am in Job Corps in Kentucky. No matter by the time I get out of this system I plan to get married to my boyfriend. And he is a US citizen

I am going to check this website out and I will be right back to talk Thanks a lot!

Okay this was a dead end. So should I look up the number to Children Home Society?

Have you tried asking your adoptive parents?

Okay with my adoptive parents I really never got along with them. They had me for the money that was being offered to them. They had the opportunity but they told me that if I wanted to know then I would have to do my own research. My parents have cut me off completely. I am on my own all I have is my boyfriend. I am at this center where they try to help teens like me. I have no place to go. They won't help me and they have crossed out all the information on the paper that had my information

You can try sites like Adoption.com that have lists of adopted children and birthparents with hopes of making a match.

You enter all of YOUR information,and any info you have about your bio-mother, and at some point if there is a match, you can be contacted.

The one concern I have here, though: WHY are you searching for your biomom? If you were in foster care, it's usually for a reason like neglect or abandonment. Are you ready to deal with rejection if your biomom doesn't want anything to do with you?

Similarly, are you going to be okay if you do NOT find her?

You can check with the foster care system, check with adoption agencies, and check court records in the city where you were adopted, as other avenues to search.

Give me a few to look into some other options, BRB.
