Hi Odierulz

Firstly, welcome to BB.

I am sorry that you are finding this so difficult to deal with and I can not imagine the pain that it must cause you. And I hope that you can take what I say as trying to be constructive.

A birth certificate is a legal document. Just like a marriage certificate or a death certificate. It records important information and unfortunately historically that has included older siblings. To say that a birth certificate is a celebration of life is just like saying that a death certificate is a celebration of death. It isn't and that is not what it is intended to achieve, it is merely a legal record of something occurring.

Writing to your federal member won't change it, all it will do is bring you further disappointment and heartache and noone would want that for you. I just can't imagine that there will be changes to the way that births are recorded and what details they require.

Many years ago there was a big push to remove the lines where it showed when and where the parents were married because this caused upset to people who were born out of wedlock. There is still that line on certificates.

I am really very sorry for your loss and that your son's birth certificate reminds you of the death of your precious angel Alyssa.
