9. I applaud 23 & Me. They will need to coordinate with the other big DNA companies.

I know at least one other DNA company has offered this, which I applaud.

However, if Mommy is tested by one company, baby #1 by another, baby #2 by another, and Daddy by a 4th company, they won't be reunited unless there's cooperation.

Also, wait for DHS and HHS to completely stonewall and block the process. They will, count on it. We need to make a huge stink when they do.
