    I found out when I was nine that I had two steps sisters on my dads side from a previous marriage.. I met one of them when I was nine she was in her early twenties.. I am 24 now and I would love to see them again and get to know them but the thing is I always asked my dad about them and he was alway reluctant to talk about them as he divorced his wife when they were still young.. and even though he reunited with is daughter 11years ago they havent been in touch since and my dad dosnet want to tell me why.. but like I said I really want to get in touch with them but Im worried about what my dad will say.. i dont want to upset him and im not sure what I am going to say to his daughters.. as in Im not sure how to ask them if they want to meet me.
    Dose anyone have any advice should I go through with this or just leave it be for the sake of my dad ect..

    Hi,

    I suggest that you first make it known to your father that you are an adult and can make responsible decisions for yourself. once he nods his head in agreement to this statement, that's when you mentin that you have a desire to meet your step-sister again. You can assure him that you will not bring him into the equation (I'm sure that you don't intend to anyway?). You ARE an adult though, and I believe that this is a 'right' that you have to meet her again.
