I still have not heard back from biological father even though it has now been several months since I last contacted him. While I don’t know what is going on in his life, I feel like he probably won’t respond at all at this point. I am disappointed as it would be nice to have medical history details as well as potentially meet my half siblings. However, I am fairly content with it at this moment in time though I am a bit perplexed. I understand that his job (he is a Lutheran minister) may complicate his response, but it actually makes me question his lack of response even more. I’ve checked out his Facebook page and he has a lot of anti-abortion postings. Seems to me that it is an extremely hypocritical position at this time: if one is opposed to abortion, shouldn’t one be pro-family, and for knowing your children? I don’t understand how a “man of God” can to be opposed to abortion yet refuse to acknowledge his own child. I truly don’t understand how someone can so forcefully claim to be “pro-family” yet ignore his own. I believe that this will all come out eventually, and he will have to face the hypocrisy.
(Aside: I am very prochoice, but am obviously happy my mother did not choose that option…though I am glad she had the option).
