Son, we have something to tell you…

By anonymous - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - Canada

Today, my parents told me I was adopted. I can understand parents waiting for a child to be old enough to understand, but I'm 33 years old. FML

This gives me hope - maybe I'm adopted after all. My parents keep denying it.

Well, maybe they knew you would want to know about the biological parent(s). And they didn't want to make you feel bad knowing your birth mom dumped you in a trash can or abused you severely as an infant? Not all pafents who give up their baby for adoption are good people, they didnt have the heart to explain, for fear of hurting you.

not all parents who give up their child are bad people either. that includes my biological parents. and besides, I think kids deserve to know why they were given up no matter how bad it was

They figured that it was time to tell you because you are all grown up and finally moved outside the basement...

cuz you wasnt mature enough for the rest 33 yrs ? lolll

#20 - speaking of being mature enough, I'm sure you know the English language, so use it! that 'l33t' spelling went out a long time ago and shows your immaturity!

At least you had parents who loved you. Some people don't even get that. So the real question is does it really matter?

Now you know. The question is, what are you going to do about it?

I'm sorry. Maybe they thought u were prepared for it.

Wow I'm so sorry. I was adopted too but I knew when I was 5 or 6. I can't imagine not knowing right now and I'm only 15. I'm so sorry.
