[quote=Anonymous]I was adopted because my mother had a miscarriage. 2 of her close friends from her youth had adopted children. That put the idea into my mom's head. My dad's father was against the idea "You don't want to inherit someone else's problem", but to make mom happy, they got me. Dad has an MSW, btw. When they came to get me, my mom realized she was "late". Not long after she found she was pregnant for sure. I was treated like dog crap by my dad. He physically, emotionally and mentally abused the stuffins out of me. My mom would occasionally try to intervene, but she was afraid of losing her meal ticket. IMO. I became very successful at my chosen field and all that good stuff after I got thrown out at 22. Problem was that my father gave my sister complete carte blanche to emotionally, verbally and mentally abuse me. I am dealing with CPTSD now and more than a few times people have commented to my dad to "lighten up" on me and not show blatant favoritism to my sister when I was about 10 and she was 8. He was unfit to adopt[/quote]
