How important is it to know ones biological parents, when the child is adopted/surrogate, off from donated sperm?

Child adoption is not something new, however, with the advancement in health sciences and technology surrogate mothers as well sperm donners are becoming part of child adoption where it is often not possible for a child to know who the biolgical parent is.

Every foster, adopted, or orphaned child wants to know who their real parents are. No matter how happy they could be, they're never at peace within.... Always that question pestering their innocent minds.
@Vivaci thank you,i have often wondered about the implications of certain situations.
@aaaabbbb I have watched many documentaries and even a few series based on ancestry.com.

Kids really want to know, unless they were adopted when they were babies and were never told bout their adoptions.
@Vivaci i have also watched many documentaries although had not paid much attention to the issues, however, as they hit home school in the neighborhood as kids begain to wonder about their identity and the family dynamics at home leading to identity issues and questions leading to where did i come from and why my father is not in my life.
