My daughter is 16 and I was pregnant with her when I was 17. Her bio father was never in her life. When I was 1st pregnant I wanted more than anything to make it work with her bio father, but he was not interested. He was constantly going to jail and when I contacted his family to see if they wanted to see my daughter and he found out he threatened to kill me and I was terrified of him. After I realized he was not going to be apart of his child's life, I signed a court document that I will never ask for the states help to care for my daughter and I do not want any child support from him and I never heard from him again. Her dad as she knows has token care of her since birth. Those times when we were teenagers and struggling it was her dad that figured out what he was going to do for food and diapers. It is her dad now that is buying her 1st car. It was her dad that cried for her when she was sick.. My daughter often asks me if she is adopted and if I am her real mom.. It's like show knows something is not as we say it is and its gnawing at my heart, what have I done :( I love her so much we are so close she's my world I would die if she hated me for not being truthful.. What should I do?
