Should I ask or wait?

Okay I am 13 and am in 7th grade, I don’t know my real dad and my step dad died when I was 2. I really want to find him and I know he may not want me but at least I will know. Whenever I ask my mom about my dad she yells at me, but that was when I was younger. I am really afraid to ask her again and this is making me so upset. It is bottolling up inside me and I cant take it anymore, my sister says that my dad may be named Dustin. Because he used to come aorund a lot and my mom was dating him but then he just stopped coming over. Either she told him she was pregnant and he left or she didn’t want him to know. My mom didn’t want anyone else telling her kids what to do and she probally didn’t want him around. SHould I ask her or wait untill I am 18 and my sister and I will try to find him. She told me she would help.

Answer #3

I think that you should ask your mom. I know its hard hearing your mom yelling at you;; but this is your family, you have a right to know about your family. I wouldnt try to find him because you dont know the whold story, he could be a bad guy[[not saying that he is;; just a thought]]. and you dont want you and your sister to get hurt do you? Try not assuming things either. Unless you know the facts, then you cant make a real basis. What I would do is, talk to your mom. Tell her you have a right knowing the truth, and thats all your asking for. Tell her that its really unsettling for you, and its hurting you and your sister not knowing. Tell her you know its hard for her to talk about, and you understand. Thats my advice. Im sorry about your father, and step father. Thats horrible. I really hope everything works out for you. Ill be hoping for you(:

Answer #4

Well, I think this is a toughy. Snaps for you and your sister for being so near to eachother. I think that if you are to the point to where your bio-dad is all you think about, you should ask. However, your mom may not want to tell you because he brings up painfull memories she’d rather not go through again, espesialy with her kids. I am not judging anyone, its not my place to do so, but I think you should consider your mom’s feelings as well.
