Hi Nicole,
My kids are still very young but my wife and I have always been open with them.
We will provide them with whatever they need (which is very little in our son's case, our daughter's is semi open situation) to search for their birth families. And we will assist them however we can. I would hope that either one of our kids would feel comfortable approaching us regarding their birth families.
It sounds like you are very close to your mom. Maybe the next time you're home from school, you should sit her down and explain to her what you plan on doing and why you are doing it. Emphasize that this will never change your relationship with her or your dad. If that works out, you can then approach your dad.
I'm really sorry this is such a source of anxiety for you and your family. It is completely OK for you to want to know your biological origins. I think deep down inside your parents know that, too.
