Answer #1

as an aunt myself that has a neice with split family also, i can tell you, if your aunt or uncle are anything like me, they will respect the fact that you want to find the rest of your family. they might even try to help you out. if you are in a good relationship with them, set them down, explain what your feeling, and explain what you plan to do about it. they should understand. Just make sure that you are making a responsible choice. If your underage, consider the impact it will have on the rest of your life, and your aunt and uncle. Make sure you are doing the right thing for the right reasons. if you just set them down,brake it to them gently, and like i said, if your in a good relationsip with them, they will understand and if they beleive you are making a choice that understandable, they will help you. good luck with your family, and just remember, there might be a reason why you dont know much about your other family. the best thing to do is just not expect anything that way whatever you get will be better than you expected. if that makes any sense…anyway, be safe while your looking.

Answer #2

First of all you should ask yourself if your aunt and uncle deserve to know what you are trying to do. Second, Do you have a job? Because once you live with someone too long, and not contribute to paying any bills it gets old, believe me. Maybe you should consider staying with your aunt and uncle while looking for the rest of your family.

Answer #3

Yes, I think you should tell them your aim let’s say a month before, and must also express your thankfulness.
