This is really touching. Honestly, it made me tear up a little bit because mine are alive and I don’t know if I will ever hear it from them because they don’t want to acknowledge that they had an oops kid from before their current spouse, but it warms my heart to hear that other parents would actually say this to their kids. ❤️

i’m sorry to hear that. i’m actually adopted so i came from a mother who chose drugs. i know im also very lucky and privileged to have an experience like this with my adoptive mom. i purposely put “loved one” in the title because love is not always blood.

thanks for sharing though, all perspectives are valid and you sound like a big ole heckin sweet heart ❤️
