What Would You Do?

Actually, my brother used to tell me that we had been kidnapped by an evil witch when we were very small, and our real mother was kind and really loved us. Of course it wasn't true, but I didn't know that when I was five or six years old, and my mother could be quite horrible.

In lieu of looking for a non- existent mother whose children had been kidnapped, I found kindness and small dollops of love and mothering from my grandmothers, and from one of my Aunts.

BUT...if that story had been true...yes. I would look for my biological family.

Kidnapped means my biological family must have been distraught to lose me and didn't have a say in it. So yes, I will look for them.

I’d really have to get to the bottom of it all …

Sounds like a book I read, yes I'd look for my real parents.
But it sucks cause the girl ended up loving the woman that kidnapped her as a mother. After 17 years of lies.

Whoa

Yes I would love my adoptive parents but I would also want to reconnect with my biological folks.

I might for medical reasons.
I would still think of adopted parents as mom and dad.

Yes I would still be dying to know who my bio family was. If they were a hot mess or really bad people I might just not contact them. I would definitely tell the parents who raised me once I had some proof.

How would you look?
