Hi everyone, would love to hear ideas/perspectives on this situation.
We've worked really hard to keep DS's surname confidential (from him) for security reasons - we wanted to try and share this information with him when we felt he was old enough to handle it well rather than risk tracking down birth family on FB (understand this might happen anyway, but want to minimise the likelihood).
However, we are soon to receive his life storybook which will have his family tree (plus surnames) and birth certificate etc which will mean all this info is available for him.
How has everyone else dealt with this situation?
