Please Help: How Do You Find A Mother You Have Never Met by Godlovesyou28: 10:24pm On May 20, 2020 |
I type this with so much pain and sense of loss. I found out about two years ago that my step mum is not my real mum (everyone keeps wondering why am just waking up to the obvious). I grew up being hated by my mum's (now step mum) family, usually beaten, overworked and deprived; but I was told that I was being trained to be strong since I was the first daughter by my mum (now step mum). At age seven I cooked all the meals except my (dads soups) and did all the cleaning. By age ten I cook every single meal at home, wash all the cloths and Iron, clean the house and run all the errands while my siblings both older and younger play and watch TV. I always felt my mum (step mum) will love me just a little bit more if I worked harder; she always told me I was special (and different) and that she loves me so much but does not know how to show it. ![]() Fast forward, am all grown up and fully independent, then a distant relative I helped told me two years ago that my mum is not my real mum with facts. For me it was a relief (I thought there was something wrong with me that made me unloveable and to be treated different and given less, but I know better now). I am more confident knowing she never loved me and that it was no fault of mine. Now, I just can't move on knowing I have a mother and I want to meet her and ask her questions (why she would dump her child for another woman to raise? Why she never came back to take me? Etc). And also if we could catch-up and be friends maybe. The problem is that no one wants to tell me anything since most of my family members fear my dad and keep referring me back to my dad; I visited my dad and begged him to tell me who she is (I cried so much that he had to beg me to stop), he asked me to go so he can discuss it with my mum (step mum) but now shouts me down each time I bring up the topic. I want to find my real mother ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 252 Likes 14 Shares |

Suing him won't help you make things easy, instead they'll get so bad! Why not try going through elders within your family, like your dad's parents or even a pastor he respects in his church.....it'll be better this way even though it might take longer time than necessary for the truth to come out.

Don’t conclude that your mother dropped you off and never bothered about you. Some men take a child from the mother and cut all contacts, since your father is so feared even by your family members, that’s a possibility. Also, he doesn’t even want to tell you who your mother is. Do you have access to your birth certificate? You can start from the hospital you were born, they might have a record of your birth. 540 Likes 31 Shares |

Put up your picture(especially baby pictures), your dad's picture and your step mum's picture on different social media page. Many people have reconnected with their family this way, Im sure you will reconnect with your mum too if she is still alive and sane. I wish you plenty of luck. 472 Likes 23 Shares |

Jullima: I can't even hold my tears back, my heart is bursting out. I don't even know why I feel this amount of pain. My birth certificate says I was born in a private hospital that don't exist(I have gone there and its an office complex) and mother's name, occupation and signature is that of my mum(now step mum). 79 Likes 4 Shares |

I have been advised to sue my dad and am considering it. You shouldn't consider that. And don't be quick to conclude she left you. Okay. Start with a name or picture. You can accomplish a lot with that. You've the internet at your disposal. Also, keep inquiring. Grandparents, old friends, neighbors, place of worship etc. People will talk. If all proof futile, then pressure your Dad. 13 Likes |

Godlovesyou28:Wow! Your birth certificate was forged (or that’s not your real birth certificate) so it means this is a more sinister scenario. Perhaps baby factory things?? Can you afford a private investigator? I see some ads here on NL for such services. Also, use social media as someone suggested, put up your pictures. Also, I think you should keep disturbing the family member that told you your step mum wasn’t your bio mum. 270 Likes 14 Shares |

Godlovesyou28:Still your birth certificate was forged, if your dad and step mum can go through the trouble of forging your birth certificate means they are trying very hard for you not to know your bio mum. That means you have to search for her yourself. Maybe that was your dad’s way of placating your step mum for having a child outside. 95 Likes 5 Shares |

Because you don't know the circumstances surrounding her leaving and not returning, don't make the conclusion that she dumped you for your wicked stepmother to raise, at least not yet. I pray you're able to get a head start in locating her. 60 Likes 3 Shares |
