walk away from adoptive family

September 22, 2024

How sad to walk away from your adoptive parents in favor of your birthfamily. Real issues? There is real issues in all families.

My daughter walked away from us and ripped my heart wide open. I worked sooooo hard to give her everything. I loved her soooooo much. I gave her a good life. Not a perfect life, but a good life. I was not perfect and we had issues but I loved. I loved. I loved. To walk away?.................Why? Who has the perfect life? I can understand abuse or down right cruelty but that wasn't the case with my daughter. It makes me wonder.............why did I bother? Why did I suck myself dry to be stepped on and walked away from.

I bothered because I loved. I love. I still love and all I get is............I should just walk away from everything I grew up with. Blood is thicker than water??? Not fair. Blood is not thicker than water for me. My girls are my girls. A part of me. Grown deep within my heart and my oldest ripped herself away.

For some people blood is thicker than water.

I’m sorry you have experienced this, but everyone is different. It would’ve been nice if she had simply chosen to include them in her life and also include you, not walking away from you completely. I personally, feel very strong connection to my blood family, and feel in need to always have them in my life.

But again, everyone is different. You know you loved her and did everything right by her so just be at peace with no one you did all you could. Hopefully she’ll come around.
