I am always doing my best to be a good daughter though it is really quite to be a good one. And with the situations that I am encountering for the past days, I can't help to think if I am really a real part of the family that I loved for the longest time. Hence, I once asked my mom if I am really her daughter and not an adopted one. That I have tried asking my mom for this because of the arguments that me and my brother is always encountering. As our arguments is like a show that is being aired repeatedly. Although we have already settled those old issues before, still, my brother always put it back whenever we are having a new arguments. With the life that I am encountering now, I cannot help to think if I am really a part of the family, I mean, if I am a real daughter or not. For once, I want to again ask my mom if I am really a legitimate child or not...

I am sorry you are feeling a bit lost. It is hard to give you an advice when we really do not know what kind of arguments you have had with your brother. But I think that the best way for you to have a peace of mind and heart is to talk to you mother how you truly feel. Help her understand what you are feeling so that you may also be enlightened.

Well that is a normal thing to happen in a family because it is a thing of casual talk, but because in my family also I had many arguments with my father and mother and also with my brother which seems unusual that doesn't mean like what you are saying, but so don't make it look weird. I life is very small to fight over petty issues and very big for loving and caring for your friends and family. Though if you have doubts you can do a DNA test by taking samples of you skin., and hair, and and any other body fluids like one that comes out of nose during sneezing and coughing and take those samples to the nearby DNA testing laboratory or something normal laboratories and check, but they just do some tests and give you reports that whether you are the real daughter of your parents or not.

Well, what did your mother say? Some people say that you can tell deep in your gut if they tell you the truth about your birth or not. How long has this been going on? It is not good that there is a long-going misunderstanding among families. But things like this do happen and sometimes we have to let it take its course until we learn that no matter what happens we still love them. I really don't know what to tell you because my spats with my family are something that can be fixed in a matter of days. Just hang on, and follow what your heart says.

Hello, airasheila! First of all I want to ask you: is it really important if the people who raised you are your natural parents or not? Think about this: You've could been born in a familly where your parents, who have given born to you, wouldn't care baout you, wouldn't give you clothes, food, school supplies, a house, love, and many things... The true parents are those which you havenow: they've raised you because they've loved you. All the things the've done , made and gave to you, are because they've loved you, and this makes them true parents. Your brother is just teasing you, because he knows that thisis your fear. Don't mind him! Go to your parents and hug them, and then you'll feel that they love you. This is the most precious and real test[and it doesn't cost you anything!;)]! You don't need doctors and science people to tell you that the real and true parents are those you raise you, you stay with you when you're sick, who help you when you're little and you can't do anything...and so on ^^. Don't mind your brother! Trust in your parents love! Have a nice day!

hello,airsheila. i think it's no sense for me to ask for the reason u quarreled with your bro. I would like to tell u ,actually you should not be so sad.I think it nothing at all.cuz,i usually quarrel with my younger bro,and sometimes,he even wants fight me.my dad always stand by my bro's side and counts my faults. every time i feel i am not one of this family, and there is no one for me to rely on.But when things happened, i had changed my mind.I still remembered that day ,when i was home with my bro.maybe that day i eat something wrong ,i stomachach badlly, and i felt cold with the same time.my bro found this and sent me to hospital in two tows.No matter how hard u fight with your family,but when u r in danger,they will help u without hesitation.so try to forgive them,and live a happy life with them.cuz when u are in danger family will stand by your side.
