The probability that your parents actually wanted you is the highest when you are an adopted kid.

I’ve never said this out loud to anyone, so here you go Reddit!

My mom went through some really bad depression after she split with my dad. I would come home and she would be crying and saying she wanted to kill herself… She admitted herself to hospital and so myself and my two siblings were places into foster care. We were shuffled around a lot, and occasionally split up. It was really hard, especially because we never really received foster parents who were expecting us to stay, so everyone was quite disengaged. We felt so unwanted by anyone… I thank the Harry Potter book series for getting me through, haha.

When we went back to my mom a couple years later. I don’t think I have ever been able to forgive her, it still makes me so incredibly sad
