‘Which one is your real daughter?’: Mother Has One Biological Daughter and One Adopted, Family Demands to Know Who Is Who, But She Puts Her Daughters First

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Keeping secrets from your family isn't always the best idea. Skeletons can come back to haunt you, and you never know what someone's reaction will be to the bad news and lies. But understandably so, sometimes it's completely necessary to have your own secrets, your own life, and build boundaries with anyone (including your family). And what exactly happens when your family knows about said secret, and they won't let you run away from it?

It's a wild story to have an adopted daughter, and not tell her she's adopted. I couldn't imagine the feelings of betrayal, and like the world has flipped upside down, the carpet's been pulled out from under your feet. I understand to an extent wanting your kids to grow up without negative or lonely feelings about being 'the other,' but isn't it better if they don't feel lied to? Regardless, every parent has a right to their own parenting styles. Enjoy this Reddit piece about a mother doing her best to look after her children.
