Abby Connolly
When she finally met her birth parents for the first time, they told her how they tried many times over the course of her childhood to contact her but that her adoptive parents wouldn’t allow it.
She also learned that although her birth parents cared about her, they couldn’t take care of her at such a young age, which is why they chose adoption. They ended up staying together and having two children years later.
Because she was so upset, she decided that as she got older, she would distance herself from her adoptive parents and work to form a relationship with her birth parents and her new siblings.
Through her birth family, she met her fiancé, and they moved in together when she turned 25. They bought a house, and two years later, she gave birth to her daughter, Trixie. She is now pregnant with her second child.
As her wedding date approaches, she made plans for her biological father to walk her down the aisle and left her adoptive parents off the guest list.
She mentioned that they hardly ever talk anymore. But, her adoptive parents did find out and are extremely angry.
They blew up, telling her that she wouldn’t be the person she is today if they hadn’t raised her and paid for her extracurricular activities.
They also accused her of taking their grandchildren away from them, even though they barely have any contact with them.
Although the bride-to-be seems comfortable with her decision, she wondered if she was doing the right thing.
