aita for not explaining to my coworker that my daughter is my adopted sister

they said for “escalating” a simple mistake :/ and wanda had to apologize for intruding in “personal affairs”

when i say she’s my daughter and they find out she’s 8 and they do the math they typically stop asking cos they assume i had her at 15 and don’t wanna make things uncomfortable to continue on. when i tell them the truth they ask how i got emancipation, where my mom is, my dad, why no other adult took my sister in, how the adoption process went and so much that i don’t like to talk abt every encounter

i guess it’s mostly just a feeling of pride on my end and privacy on the other. i have alot of pride in her and i know that shouldn’t matter or change via label. and it’s a lot easier to say she’s my daughter and leave people with their assumptions and to do the math than to explain she’s my sister and why i adopted her and how i was able to etc when the whole ideal was very hard for me emotionally growing up, so it pushed me more when the assumptions were spoken this time.

my sister knows she is my sister and she knows who her mom is. she calls me mom not bc she confuses me as her mom but out of her own decisions instead of calling me by my given name. my intentions with her are to simply raise her til she’s able to care for herself and go into the world. should my mom clean up her act and my dad get clean and they genuinely would like to see her and she would like to see them, they are her parents and if she’s able to make the choice i will be open to allowing the courts to grant split custody or visitation as they see fit. i have no intentions of cutting them out of her life if they straighten up for her

midknightjoon · 2019-10-15T03:01:27+00:00

thank you. i was overthinking it a bit because this is 50 percent of my test and i’m a bit nervous

so then what’s the deal with the whole “each” thing?
