Good Reasons might be:
- To discover your history
- To try for a reconciliation after an argument
- To renew an old friendship
- To meet with missing family members
- To search for birth family after adoption
In the commercial world most searches are to chase debts or to return money.
Bad Reasons might be:
- To find people when there has been a history of abuse or violence or when there is an injunction in place that you keep away.
- To get even
- To demand money
- To do harm
- To snoop
- To stalk
I have always refused jobs where I am uncomfortable about the motives of the searchers. These jobs have been:
- To trace a work colleague where obsession in the name of love is the motive
- To bring back errant wives
- To return a daughter who does not want to marry the husband chosen for her
I am sorry to raise this issue so early on, but it is very important to know your motives before you get carried away with the excitement of playing detective.
