what should i do if i found out i have a dead little brother and my mom never told me?

i found this packet with information on when he was born he died and my mom never told me. should i say something to her like that i know?

Answer #1

Ask her about it, its what i would do

Answer #2

I think it’s okay to ask her about it if you want to know about your brother, but if you do ask, be gentle about it and be careful how you word your questions or replies to her. I know you’re probably upset that she never told you, but losing a child is the worst thing a parent can ever go through. So even if it’s been a while, sensitivity is still super important. She probably just didn’t know how - or wasn’t prepared to - let you know about it.

In any case, good luck.

Answer #3

If you were my child…and were asking, I’d feel that you were old enough to know…..go ahead and ask….

Answer #4

Ask about him. She shouldnt have kept that from you.

Answer #5

You have a right to know, and if you don’t ask now, you may never ask and regret it. You should sit down with her when you guys won’t be interrupted and ask her calmly about it.

Answer #6

You can talk to her about it. Your mother probably never told you earlier because it was probably very painful and she probably thought you were just too young. I didnt find out that my mother was pregnant two years before I was born until I was in my teens. I mean it probably wasnt a conscious effort to lie to you then it was simply something she didnt know how to talk to you about.
