because blood is thicker than water, people tend to feel more love to someone who came from them, which makes sense like mothers who care for their kids. however, i dont get why they immediately feel less love for the kid they raised. but it's usually guilt esp of rich parents when their bio kids were raised poor. so they neglect the fake kids
the quote actually goes “the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb ” isn’t it weird how we most commonly use it to suggest the opposite?
I beg to differ on the blood is thicker than water thing. I have a blood sister that I haven't talk to in 9 years, and a bff that I talk to at least once a day. My besties is my sister in my eyes and my sister is someone I have the misfortune of sharing genes with. With this father I just feel like it more of a guilt thing.
like maybe it's because i am not a parent but i just can't imagine prioritizing someone because they have your genes over someone you brought up and spend years with treating as a daughter like how in that situation do you believe a random girlie you don't know for that long over someone you've known for years
