11/05 DNA Dramas
Quote From: crystalwheThe "REAL" Dad in any child's life is the man who is raising him/her! Give it a rest, this man seems to be the onne responsible for his child and not matter the results of DNA testing is the "REAL" Dad.
Those of us with adopted children, step children, extended families of what ever type no who are the "REAL" people in a child's life...........and I for one really get upset about the "REAL" title being thrown about. I am my daughter's Mom even tho she does not look like me, my husband is her Dad even tho there is no family resemblance. Please, people, watch your phrasing!
I fully agree with you! I don't think that DNA should even matter at all. Any man can lie down with a woman & be a sperm donor, but it takes a real man to raise a child & to be called "dad". My birth father left us (me & my mother) after I was only about a year old. I had a few father figures in the past (not stepfathers, because my mother didn't marry any of them), & they were helping me, my mother, & my half-sister out!
