  • We are feeling hurt and lied to by our daughter’s birth family. What do we do?
  • First father is dangerous and contacting us, what do I do?
  • My sister is searching for her birth parents — will I lose her?
    • ]]>     When placing my daughter for adoption I lied and stated the birth father was a one night stand and I didn’t know him.  Truthfully he’s a drug dealer and had made threats against both me and the baby while I was pregnant.  Involving him terrifies me.  I know he has rights but I truly did what I felt was best for our daughter.  I feel horrible lying to the adoptive family and would really like to tell them the truth one day, but I’m not sure how.  I’m scared that they will hate me and close the adoption.  Any advice?
