(I have no idea where this should be)
I have been thinking alot lately about my biological father but the problem is I dont know anything about him I dont even know his first name. The only person who knows about him is my mother and I am debating if I should ask her or not because my mother and I have finally started getting along and I dont know if asking her would make her mad at me again. So the question I am trying to ask is if I should ask her or not. And if I should ask how should I bring it up?

It's very natural to want to know and I think your Mom should answer any questions you have. Good or bad, you have the right to know about yourself. Definitely you should ask. A

Since you guys are starting to get along now's as good a time as ever to ask her. Maybe at dinner or just during some down time, ask something like "Mom I've been thinking. Can you tell me more about my father?" You don't have to be that direct. You can look like you're troubled by something and see if she asks if anything is wrong, or just go up and ask her. I cannot tell you if she will get mad at you (for reasons I do not understand) but try to get her at her calmest. Don't start to make a scene when you ask, just be cool.

I wouldn't see why she would be mad? If you are wondering about your biological family, then you should know some info about them! I know I always ask my mom if she knows anything else about my biological family, but it's hard for her since I'm from Russia, and she didn't really get a background of who they were. But go ahead and ask her!

I don't see a reason why you shouldn't ask her. But keep in mind you are not really sure what your mom's feelings are about your dad.
So you might stress her asking about your dad. Maybe causing emotional reactions. So you should carefully pick the right time and place for talking to her about him.

Ii's better you asked about it so that you have this question cleared for once.
Be cool while questioning your mum,not to mess things up.
