I’m 16 and I know the truth, but I don’t want to defy her.
Your mother’s refusal to tell your sister her adoption story has now devolved from lying by omission to outright lying.
This story is nothing to be ashamed of or worried about, except, of course, when it becomes this big and powerful secret that the whole family must keep. You should tell your mother that you will never lie about this and that if asked you will tell the truth. This book not only suggests ways to have this talk, but also anticipates the many questions that children frequently ask.I disagree with your advice to “Distressed Sister.” Adoption is between the parents and the child.
