A 17-year-old from Poland says her older sister assumed, without ever asking, that she would receive her baby after learning she was planning to place the child for adoption. According to a post shared on Reddit’s r/AITAH community, the teen was 21 weeks pregnant at the time and had already decided on closed adoption before the situation unfolded.
The teen, who posted under the username u/Due_Client_7347, said her ex-boyfriend left when he found out about the pregnancy. She stated that she wanted to continue her studies, that her financial situation at home with her mother was difficult, and that she did not feel she was in a position to parent. She said closed adoption was her considered choice, and noted that in Poland, many families are waiting for newborns.
