Okay sometimes I wonder if I was adopted. I wil admitt that. There have been a few things going on in my life that have consituted my family being more involved in my life how ever they don't seem to take the oppurtunity to do this. I am 25 and 39 weeks pregnant with my first child. Now my mother has been really wanting me to get pregnant for sometime and i thought that once this happened that she would want to be more involved with everything but it doesn't seem that way. I figured my sister (who is two years younger than me) would give me support since she has two children of her own and knows what its like to go through pregnancy. Nothing i have received no support from these people. I don't get it im there for them how ever they think its possibly okay for them to never be there for me then the other day my mom asked me out of the blue if i was gonna allow her to be in the delivery room with us. What was i supposed to say but yes. But now im not so sure. I guess i can't really take the invite back that would hurt her to much....hmm that is one i'll have to think about Then tonight my sister wanted to go out with a boy thats a friend apparently from what she says even though she has a boyfriend and asked that i watch the kids. Well at first she wanted to leave her kids with her current boyfriend (mitch) who she hasn't known but a month and yet seems to be living with her and have me lie to him if he asked me where she was i told her no that i would be more than willing to watch the kids for her cause i don't feel comfortable with someone she barley knows watching my neice and nefew i mean what is she thinking? This person could harm the kids when she isn't there yet she feels comfortable enough to leave the kids with him i just don't understand. I really can't say much about the relationship or what she does but im two seconds from letting her know that i don't think she should let the kids be around some one she barely knows after all he could be a molester for all we know....usually i like the guys she sees they are usually very good with the kids but there is something wrong with this one and even my own husband sees it....hmm there is another one to think about lol Okay done venting thanks!!!! Any advice greatly appreciated

Good vent. I actually enjoyed reading that LOL. Well this would sound rude coming from a complete stranger, but from the sounds of it, your sister doesn't sound so bright - on the other hand, as a pregnant person with lots of hormonal imbalance going on, you sound pretty attach to this world...so I think you have valid reasons to think that you're adopted. About your parents not giving you any support... maybe they think you're doing pretty well on your own and you don't like being harassed with too much worry from them :D Hope you have fun with your niece and nephew! They'll turn out awesome if you keep on looking after them - and keep them away from stupid boyfriends :D Thanks fro the comment on my discussion :D

It sounds like your family is full of selfish people. I would stay away. they use you but have nothing to offer. Your sister sounds like she is on a self destruct line. What is she doing bringing all these guys around her kids? I would run. There is no good you can do, they will suck out your will to live! See if you and your husband can move away. Then just visit over the phone and through the mail! I know this sounds harsh, but I m just warning you ahead of time.
