Adoption Intake Form

I'm in my 50s. I've known I was adopted since I was three or four. There was a little book, explaining how it all worked in very kid friendly terms. My sister was also adopted, a year and a half after I was; my brother was not.It was known, openly discussed in our family, but once everyone was on board with the underlying facts, it wasn't a topic of conversation. In fact, I don't recall it being mentioned at all for decades at a time.When I was in high school, it came up in an unexpected way. My girlfriend did some really egregiously over the top things that offended my parents, who insisted that I break up with her immediately. I declined. In the predictable fallout from that, in a fit of pique, she suggested that I move out and "find my real parents".I was shocked, to put it mildly. As far as I was concerned, the people that raised me were my "real parents". That conversation (and the ones that followed) did more damage to my relationship with her than with my parents.Through my 20s and 30s, I never really thought about it. I mean, like at all. It was part of the fabric of my life, part of the wallpaper. It just was.In my early 40s, some things happened that set me to thinking. A therapist suggested that some of my attachment issues might be deeply seated in that whole "given up for adoption at birth" thing, and set me on a course of reading, material from authors who supported that concept. I gave it some thought. I signed up for a registry, and nothing happened. I stopped thinking about it.Some years later, not long after marrying my wife, we got pregnant. And that set a whole new chain of thoughts into motion.  My wife had grown up not knowing her father, or actually even knowing who he was, and had only met him a few years prior in her late 30s. She talked about how hard it was with her older kids, having to cross out whole sections on medical intake forms and write in "Unknown". How scary it was to wonder what genetic predispositions they might have to unknown conditions.She earnestly suggested that I might not want to experience that, and that our unborn child might also want to have that information, and contact with actual biological family.I hesitated. I dragged my feet. I prevaricated. Eventually, I re-contacted the registry - and discovered that I hadn't heard anything because I'd not correctly filled out my intake form. I corrected that, and instantly got a response back from a researcher. I had a name.Lucy Smith.I had some back-story, thanks to my high-school girlfriend. Her mother had been the assistant to the attorney that handled my adoption paperwork for my parents, and she knew stuff that I hadn't been told. That my mom was 16 at the time, from somewhere in Oklahoma. That she was very much in love with a slightly older boy, had gotten pregnant, and had wound up being forcibly separated from him and put in a home for unwed mothers.From there, I had facts. I knew the name of the establishment, knew the name of the hospital I was born in, and had enough of a case to petition for opening my sealed adoption records, based on medical need.The file was empty. Literally, empty. Nothing. No contents.It pretty much let the air out of my balloon. I halfheartedly did some more research and learned that the particular home for unwed mothers where my biological mother wound up was ultra protective of its girls, and that they frequently used pseudonyms for the girls both in the house and at the hospital. And that they'd been closed for some time, and the organization which inherited custody wasn't open to disclosure, and had been accused of destroying records in the past.Was "Lucy Smith" a fake name? Or possibly worse, a real one? And what's the path to finding an answer? I sure can't find one.For me, there might or might not be closure in it. For my son, there's a chance of having an extended family that he'd never have otherwise. I'd be delighted for his sake if there were an answer, but the trail I have is old, and cold, and protected by people who are guarding the secrets of the past from a sense of morality that's past its expiration date.If I had more to go on, I'd still be looking.

When I was 14 I was severely depressed and tried to commit suicide. Thankfully, I failed. Because of my age, the state ordered that I spend 10 days in a psychiatric hospital for children. I was moved to a facility in another state (oddly enough, that's what our insurance would pay for) and put into a ward with troubled children, ages 4 to 14. I was like a grown up, to most of the children there.Overall..  it was eye opening. From my perspective, at the time, anyways. I was placed in a room with another girl roughly my age. She still wet the bed. That was shocking to me. I was given a pencil to write down some things I like and didn't like, on an intake form. I sat on the couch, filled the paper out, and turned it in. But I lost the pencil. I'm not sure how. By then, the hospital I had been in for the overdose had started me on a heavy dose of antidepressants. I lost a lot of things during that time. The staff went nuts. They searched me, my things, my room. Called my parents to ask how worried they should be about me "stealing" the pencil. Then they told me that other kids could try to hurt me with the pencil, or hurt themselves. I guess they thought they would scare me into turning it in. But I truly didn't have it. I was banished to my room for the remainder of the first day until they found the pencil under a couch. Most of the children there were long term residents, and so they went to school during the daytime in another building. Since I was a short term resident, I attended different groups and played video games like Spyro. In one of the groups we were talking about cutting and self harm. We were asking each other about our scars, where they came from, why we did it, etc. After asking one girl where her oddly large scar came from on her wrist, she told me that her birth mother bit her when she was just a baby. After that she was put into a group home and adopted shortly after. She developed behavior issues as a young child and by the time she was 11 they dropped her off at this "camp" and never came back for her. I am sure there was more to her story than she told me, but in general there were a lot of kids there who had very hard lives. Another little girl, Charlotte.. I'll never forget her. She was gorgeous. Dark skin, soft curly hair. She was about 7. Her mom came to visit every night and would give her a bath. She told me that either her mother or a staff worker had to give her a bath still, because when she's alone the voices would tell her to go under the water. The poor little girl fought voices all day, telling her to hurt herself. At only 7. I remember several kids being put into the "time out room" (padded room) for misbehaving and they would scream and wail for HOURS! Throwing themselves against the walls, pounding on the doors.. all the padding in the world didn't block their screams. At 14 I couldn't understand why they were screaming. No one came the first time you screamed, why would they come on the 10th? During breakfast one day, I saw a 4 year old boy, Brandon, throw a temper tantrum and try to attack a staff member with a fork. Several grown men had to hold down his thrashing limbs while he was injected with a tranquilizer. He told me later how badly he felt, but he couldn't stop himself. I met a boy close my to my age, probably about 13, who had lied about trying to commit suicide to keep his dad from getting in trouble. He said his dad gave him some of his pills, and he overdosed. His dad told him to lie, or else he would be taken into state custody. So he did.I was just depressed. My boyfriend broke up with me earlier that year. I was spending too much time in AOL chat rooms and not with my friends. My sleep schedule was off, and I made an irrational choice. I was completely unaware of the very hard life that some kids were living. I'm not sure "eye opening" is strong enough of a term for my experience there. While I was elated to leave after the 10 days, I have thought of those children often through out the years. They would all be adults now. I hope they have had been able to move on from that terrible experience. Edit 4/15/16 - I can not believe how many views this has gotten! Over 15,000 people have read my story, and that's amazing! I hope that 15,000 more people now have a greater understanding of mental health care and how serious these situations can be, even from a young age.

NOOOOOOO. You are talking to a military romance scammer. I received an email from the US Army that directly answers your question that is pasted below please keep reading.I believe you are the victim of a military Romance Scam whereas the person you are talking to is a foreign national posing as an American Soldier claiming to be stationed overseas on a peacekeeping mission. That's the key to the scam they always claim to be on a peacekeeping mission.Part of their scam is saying that they have no access to their money that their mission is highly dangerous.If your boyfriend girlfriend/future husband/wife is asking you to do the following or has exhibited this behavior, it is a most likely a scam:Moves to private messaging site immediately after meeting you on Facebook or SnapChat or Instagram or some dating or social media site. Often times they delete the site you met them on right after they asked you to move to a more private messaging siteProfesses love to you very quickly & seems to quote poems and song lyrics along with using their own sort of broken language, as they profess their love and devotion quickly. They also showed concern for your health and love for your family.Promises marriage as soon as he/she gets to state for leave that they asked you to pay for.They Requests money (wire transfers) and Amazon, iTune ,Verizon, etc gift cards, for medicine, religious practices, and leaves to come home, internet access, complete job assignments, help sick friend, get him out of trouble, or anything that sounds fishy.The military does provide all the soldier needs including food medical Care and transportation for leave. Trust me, I lived it, you are probably being scammed.

I was selected for a summer internship 2016.I tried to be very open while filling the preference form: I choose many products as my favorite products and I said I'm open about the team I want to join.I even was very open in the  location and start date to get host matching interviews (I negotiated the start date in the interview until both me and my host were happy.) You could ask your recruiter to review your form (there are very cool and could help you a lot since they have a bigger experience).Do a search on the potential team.Before the interviews,  try to find smart question that you are going to ask for the potential host (do a search on the team  to find nice and deep questions to impress your host). Prepare well your resume.You are very likely not going to get algorithm/data structure questions like in the first round. It's going to be just some friendly chat if you are lucky. If your potential team is working on something like machine learning, expect that  they are going to ask you questions about machine learning, courses related to machine learning you have and relevant experience (projects, internship). Of course you have to study that before the interview. Take as long time as you need if you feel rusty. It takes some time to get ready for the host matching (it's less than the technical interview)  but it's worth it of course.

Just register on the admission portal and during registration you will get an option for the entrance based course. Just register there. There is no separate form for DU CIC.
