Two other people took on the role of parent to the child and they have every right to parent the child and make decisions regarding that relationship, even when the child reaches adulthood. She should honor the parents wishes to leave it alone.
frick that. Her child was an adult and deserved to at least know about the adoption. If he didn't want to meet his mom then fine. But keeping that knowledge from him? Pretty fricked up.
This wasn't a 5 year old who might not be able to take the idea of being adopted, this was a mid 20 year old with a family.
Imagine what percentage of people who are adults and would want to know - it'd be a vast majority. You can't just gloss over that.

What makes you believe most adults would want to know? I’d argue many would prefer to just carry on their normal life without having this bombshell dropped on them. I personally think I’d be in that boat. It would be such a disruptor.
The entire point of adoption is to give a child a normal and better life that it could not have had otherwise. Just let that process do what it’s intended to do.
