Some attitudes will push you to question yourself if the parents you are living with are truly your biological parents, some children are maltreated and making it obvious that they are truly not the biological parents of such child, or the siblings can detest the child and favor the siblings than the child but if there is nothing of such in my case just found out that my parents aren't my biological parents then I do not have any issue with it.
I have known these people to be my parents for over twenty-five years, does that mean my birth parents don't care about me? Does that mean I am worthless to them? I guess that is the question I would ask myself If I found out that the parents who raised me to this age are not my biological parents.
There will be nothing to change about them because I have known them all my life but I deserve to know where and how they find me, if they answer my question then we are good to go, there is nothing wrong in adopting a child in as much they are taking good care of me, they are still my parents even if my biological parents show up because I have always have a happy family with them and no one will ruin it.
I hold no grudges against them for not telling me the truth, I know it is for my own good If they have told me about who I am, I may not be with them anymore, or I may take little offense at heart, I do had fights with my siblings and never count it as anything but the moment I discover that they are not my real siblings, different thought will start to emerge by saying because they are not my biological siblings that is why they are treating me in such manner but since it is a secret kept from me then I will always respect their decision.
My parents have been through a lot for me, if I found out that they were not my real parents there would be nothing I would do because they had already carried out their duty diligently, sponsoring all my education, feeding me, clothing, and the rest, my parents are the best parent you can ever pray for, their support and willingness to help is topnotch, what else do I want, even if my biological parents show up what do they want to offer me?
They will continue to be my parents because I respect them for raising me to this level without me having second thoughts about them, raising me to be a responsible daughter, and giving me the parental care that I deserve then I remain their daughter for life, I do not care if my biological parents are the richest people in the world.
Although the news would be a shocking one especially if I heard it from an outsider calling me names like you are a bastard or something related to that, that is the only way I can question them but if I heard it from them then they know I am mature to handle such news and that is why they tell me. There is nothing bad in adopting a child since they never for once forsake me or speak Ill of me then I am good with them.
