What Would You Do?

If you discovered that your parents who have been nothing but good to you since you can remember weren't biologicaly your family? If you discovered that you were kidnapped as a baby by someone they (your parents) knew (but they had no idea) and the kidnapper took the secret to the grave.

Would you look for your biological family?

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.

@4meAndyou I've realized that when people were raised in a home where they were hurt they do the same to their kids and the cycle continues from generation to generation till somebody decides to break the cycle. Sometimes my mom would say the meanest of things that are hurtful but when I analyze the root of these words I realize that she's continuing the cycle herself. I used to be the same myself but God transformed me so dramatically and I love the change in me.

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.

@SW-User Love can be a funny thing. It can happen in unlikely places.

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.

@Stereoguy Great idea! She would have to do a DNA test and go onto all the genealogy websites to find family members.
