I encountered my first trigger. . .

Papa and I have not spoken in over a month, but are still "friends" on facebook as a bit of an olive branch to each other. well, he REGULARLY posts crap about how good he feels, how he's getting his sht together, blah blah. . . i've decided a lot of that is just posturing because clearly, CLEARLY if he's ignoring that fact that he's going to be a father in November, he ain't doin' so hot mentally.

But then yesterday happened. . . I got home from work just as he should have been leaving for work, checked my facebook and was assaulted by a picture of his mother [who lives in town, and has never met me] and some other unidentified relatives with the hashtags: familyforever, bloodline, and familyovereverything.

I LOST IT.

Seriously?! SERIOUSLY?! Smurf you, buddy. way to rub my nose in everything you're denying my child. OUR CHILD.

I was adopted, i don't have bloodlines outside of this baby and now my baby will experience the same anguish of knowing there are people out there that are blood, but they can't know them AND YOU'RE ADVERTISING IT ON FACEBOOK?!

Sucker punch to the gut. that's what yesterday was. ok, I'm done ranting.

    I will never understand how men can separate one thing in their lives from another. Clearly this man is an idiot.

    I can't help but think that while we are preparing and planning *** is going to get real for these idiots real quick after the baby is born and it's going to be time to grow up. Let them have their fun now because everything always comes home to roost.&nb

    what a jerk!  i honestly don't think some people really "get it".  I know how you feel about your baby not knowing his family, been through that for 3 years with my DS and his dad's family.  it's sad to know people actually deny babies.

    Agreed on all fronts!

    What gets me is the hypocracy of claiming to have a deep value and respect for family while denying my baby not just your time, but your PATERNITY! . . . family over everything huh? I got your family right here. . . ins
