      Would you have rather the mother be a dumb narcissist who's all, "My child is a genius and this letter is proof. Look at the smart kid I raised. I'm the best."
      Yeah, it's important to actually know your children instead of lying about their accomplishments to appear as "Parent of the Year". Specifically because of shit like this. And so many people don't know their kids that if this kind of thing happened to them they'd go along with the letter to protect their egos because they can't handle the idea of their offspring not being perfect.

I found out about this while we were looking through family photos and found her picture. My family is white, but she was adopted from Korea, so of course I was a little confused about who she was. But my mother explained who she was and what had happened to her. My middle name comes from her also.

All i understood is that she doesnt want to meet her biological father, but she did meet her mom’s side of the family. Her biological grandmother wanted tiffany’s “adopted” parents to keep custody, and they finally officially adopted her when she was 18. She was always told she was born in October something but her real birthday is in September, which was really hard for her because she loved her birthday being in October because of halloween.
