[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I am sorry you did not have a chance to get to know your father before he died.

While your mother may claim that you were better without  him in your life, that was not her call to make.  She did not have the unilateral right to cut him out of his child's life. Sadly, many fathers may give up rather than fight the mother to the teeth for the right to maintain a relationship with their kids.  TBH, you mom doesn't sound like she was exactly good material for "Mother of The Year Award" either.

I would suggest you maintain contact with your older half-brother to learn what you can about your dad.  Perhaps consider donating to a non-profit which helps fathers legally maintain relationships with their children. [/quote]

I agree with you PP (not the OP) but the OP needs to move on and not fixate on her bio dad. He was just someone who contributed to her conception, that's it. She is her own person and knowing what he was like doesn't make any difference. Probably has a closet of skeletons. Doesn't matter. [/quote]

Well said. The people that raise you are the real parents, I would celebrate that and move on.[/quote]
