"Hello, I'm the son you gave up for adoption." In the cicumstances, not only would his actions have been devasting to the old lady, they would also have been illegal.

So it was illegal when the daughter I gave up for adoption sent me a letter basically saying "Hello, I'm the daughter you gave up for adoption".?  It might not have been the authentic way of contacting me, but it's what happened and it was her adoptive father who did most of the searching for her, using Birth and marriage certs, electoral roll etc. there was no-one from Social Services involved in any way.
