The problems with finding a sibling/parent who you have previously been estranged from or didn't know existed are quite different and I agree, heart breaking. I also think that it's very often misplaced love/bonding and needs a lot more exploring.
I deal with incest cases... parents, siblings etc... It's absolutely not something that can be accepted.

I do Jack. The reason being that in my experience, incest can come about in cases where there has been abuse within a family which has not been dealt with and because of this, the appropriate boundaries and 'off buttons' do not apply... So while you may still have two older siblings making this decision, in my experience, it's rare that they are making such decisions from the same premise as someone else would.
Also, you have mothers of children who have been abused by their fathers and who still have those fathers in their lives... They are unable to get themselves out of a cycle of abuse (even if no longer occuring, the mindset is still there) which means they are unable to protect their own children and also themselves. Again, boundaries and a sense of right and wrong are all wobbly.
I am sure not all incest cases are like this, but a lot of what I see is and for that reason, I will never be on board for incest becoming more exceptable. I'd be happy for it to be more talked about though :c)

See....?
I knew you'd have a sensible answer. :o)
I suppose there is a sort of 'chicken or egg' rationale to the question, isn't there ?
And, despite their assurances, could we ever be certain that the people concerned were as 'normal' as you and I in the examples and cues they were using to make decisions ? :o)

I think it would be rare to find a case where the people in questions are coming from the same place as anyone with a sibling even if abuse wasn't involved. Most of us don't even want to imagine our siblings having rudies let alone be involved! I think I would always start with the premise that a wire wasn't functioning somewhere I'm afraid.
I don't apply the same logic to cases where siblings/parents have met after having never met. I do think that it's misplaced love though and I think it's sad.
