[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You've had 14 years to figure this out, and now you're asking DCUM? By waiting so long you've destroyed the trust your child will have in you.  [/quote]

Well at least it took until page three to get an unkind, and completely unnecessary comment.[/quote]

That’s true, and maybe some cause for hope.

The person who made the unkind comment is also a bit of a sadist, since OP can’t change the past.  But PP just could not resist making a cruel comment designed to inflict pain.

To that PP, there is something seriously wrong with you.[/quote]

Yes, there is something wrong with me. My mom waited until I was 18 to tell me I was adopted, and it was a mind f*ck and felt like a complete betrayal. OP has known from the beginning that she would have to tell her child, but has chosen to put it off. My hope is that perhaps, by posting the science study, it will inspire other parents to tell their kids early so they aren't blindsided in adulthood. And OP doesn't need her feelings coddled, that is how she has managed thus far to avoid her responsibility in this situation that she has created.[/quote]
