Has anyone tried 23andMe (or something similar)? I am considering trying it out. My "father" has not been in my life since day 1. And it's always awkward asking my mom anything about him, not that she wouldn't tell me, but when you get pregnant at 20 and the guy splits I'm sure she didn't get a lot of family history. Honestly I don't want to speak with him either, but I would really like to know more about my heritage to feel a little more complete. So I was hoping someone would give me any experiences with using one of those tests. Good? Bad? Worth the money? How far back did it go? Any info would be helpful.
that would be very hood for you to know i found out that i had and older brother and recently found i had another brother that my dad gave up for adoption 32 years ago
@adri8192 I personally feel that he didn't want to be in my life so I'm not gonna go looking for him since he's obviously not looking for me. But 1 thing I do want to know is if I have siblings. My mom got married and they never had kids. So being the only child sucked growing up. If I had siblings I would definitely want to know them since I was never given that option as a child. So this is the next best thing trying to learn family heritage this way.
i know how u feel my dad left my mom when she was pregnant with and i always felt a part of me missing and every birthday i wished if i was good enough that he would come. i met my dad when i was 21 in 2013 until this day im still trying to get to know him. i hot a hold of him through my grandpa my mom told me that my grandpas number was in the phone book
i contacted one of them we talk quite often but the one that was adopted i have no clue on where to look im trying to find him
