Re: DNA

  • My brother always did the adopted thing too. Then this Jewish stuff came up and he's back on the teasing. All in good fun though. 
  • On the flip side of family secrets, if DNA analysis were more accessible it would shut the pie hole of all meanie siblings who like to tease, "You're adopted!!" ... Like my sister did to me as the only blonde of the family when we were kids...
    I escaped that one because my sisters witnessed my birth, but they would regularly tell me I was an accident. I would go crying to my mom, who would say "No sweetie, you weren't an accident, you were a surprise." That made me feel better until I was old enough to realize that "surprise" is just a nicer way to say "accident."
    My dad is number 2 of five.  In our family we like saying that number four was an accident and number five was a mistake.  heh, we're mean.
