We're back here again today with another amazing Reddit post and this one we're looking at today is from the AITA thread. This thread is the perfect place to go to see if you are in the wrong or not for something you did or said in a situation.

Sometimes it's hard to ask people around us for their opinion on our situation because they are biased based on the information they know. This is where threads like this come in handy.

So with this being said, we are looking at a post today that was submitted by a woman who wants to know if she's in the wrong for wanting to do a 23 and Me test even though it could reveal her identity to her birth mother's side of the family. The situation here is a little bit complicated but ultimately she just wants to know if she will be in the wrong to do this even though she's adopted.

People had a lot to say in the comments so if you're interested in looking into the full post and all of the best comments then keep on reading as we dive in and give you all the details on OP's post and what people had to say.

OP starts off with a small disclaimer about her situation and the story.

So OP started off by telling us she's adopted and what kind of situation is going on between her and her bio mom.

We totally understand this because we know they might feel some type of way and it's obviously going to be a hard conversation.

It's clear that the mom doesn't want really anything else to do with OP which she said she was okay with.

She wants to do a 23 and Me test but she knows this would open the door to any of her other bio family finding out who she is and that she exists.

OP really wants to do the test and she feels like she's respected her bio-mom's wishes enough.

I think that this situation is very complicated and there are a lot of things to consider here which makes it even more complicated.

The first comment here was quite long and hit a lot of points while giving some good advice to OP.

This is the best advice because it helps her do what she wants but also without disturbing her bio family.

This person ended her comment with saying that she can help out OP if she needs.

This person had a lot to say in response to the comment above in saying that she disagreed with it heavily.

It feels like this person's personal experience definitely has a lot to do with how they responded to OP's situation.

This person ended their comment by saying that it's OP's history and so she can find it out if she wants to.

It seems like most people are actually pushing OP to take the DNA test.

Some others came to the defense of the commenter and said that they actually gave the best advice here.

This situation is complicated and people had a lot of different opinions here.

This situation is complicated, as most adoption stories are, but we do want OP to be able to find out more about herself and her family if that's what she wants. It seems like people in the comments section were all over the place with what they thought about this situation.
