Every family has its secrets. I have been finding out a lot of family secrets over the last couple of years, and by a lot, I mean 2. That probably doesn’t sound like a lot to you, but for a person who is always trying to figure stuff out about their family before they were born, one jaw-dropping new secret every two years is as good as it’s going to get for me. I understand why my family doesn’t trust me with their deep, dark past. I am a Grade-A blabbermouth, and I want to tell everyone I know about the new info. When I found out my mom was secretly a Christian Scientist for her entire childhood, I literally told everyone I knew about it, so maybe I shouldn’t be trusted with family secrets. Sometimes, secrets can’t help but come out, and these 20 family secrets are extremely juicy and compelling.
