No. Not really. He can want to have a relationship with his bio-mom and express that desire, and if this was the real world, then Regina could check Emma out and make sure she wasn't going to do harm and allow that contact. That would likely be one of the best possible outcomes in that case. Of course, the show is about fairy tales so there are all kinds of ridiculous complications. The basic problem is that they didn't put the kind of thought into their adoption storyline that they needed to make it anything other than offensive (on the face of it). It very tangentially reminds me of shows that have a trans* character but constantly refer to their biosex and make them the butt of the joke (e.g., a mtf character who likes sports and drinking beer and so it's just like hanging out with one of the guys, amirite?) The main difference is that the latter is usually played for laughs while OUaT is trotting out their problematic storylines in service of dramah.
