Paternity Stories Gone Wrong
moneywise ^ | Sep 07, 2023

Reddit users recall shocking real-life stories where the paternity of a child came into question.

Beautiful mature woman hugging her husband, showing HUSH gesture, having secret affair, texting her lover on smartphone. Adultery, relationship issue, marriage cheating, hidden love concept

Back in the late ‘50s or 1960s, my uncle had an affair with a woman who later divorced her husband and became his wife (and my aunt). She had two children with her first husband, or at least that was the official story.

It was obvious, based on appearance, that one of those children was my uncle's biological child. She looked nothing like my aunt's first husband or her older brother, and exactly like my uncle.

As the years went by, the pretense was dropped and it was never mentioned again.

“That’s impossible” Medical Science Laboratory: Portrait of Beautiful Black Scientist Looking Under Microscope Does Analysis of Test Sample.

My mother used to work in a medical lab. One day, another woman who worked in the building was visiting the lab and mentioned that she was blood Type X, her husband was Type Y, and their child was Type Z (I don’t remember the specific types).

“That’s impossible,” blurted out one of the younger lab technicians. Luckily, the visitor either didn’t notice or didn’t care, and moved along shortly after.

I once heard a story about a man who secretly got a DNA test on their 5-year-old daughter, and the results showed she wasn’t his.

He had done the test twice to make sure. He confronted his wife, and she swore up and down that it had to be his child.

They eventually found out the child wasn’t hers, either.

Somehow, the babies were mixed up in the hospital.

The US Embassy refused to accept me as the father, had to get a DNA test. I included all 3 of us. While not conclusive the results were that the daughter was 99.9999999998% likely to be ours.

I was reading yesterday that, upwards of 40% of DNA tested children will prove to not be related to the father.

Oh my, the story about the child not being from either parent. To think that adultery was a possibility must’ve made that marriage shaky and then to later find out neither was a parent, what mixed emotions! A cautionary tale on not jumping to conclusions. Maybe they should do DNA testing of the parents and baby before leaving the hospital. Would be a lot quicker to resolve without people moving away and such.

I just clicked on both links and was taken to the article. Not sure why you are having an issue.

I got the article as well, but when I scrolled halfway down, it went straight to the site’s homepage.

I know of a state political figure who impregnated the wife of a colleague in the legislature. As the years went on, the resemblance became so obvious that the mother and putative father had to inform her teen son who his true father was and keep him away from political occasions. And yes, the people involved were all liberal Democrats.

A few years ago I did the ancestry.com test and found out one of my father’s affairs produced twin girls. When my half brother took his test it turns out he was actually my full brother. Seems my mother cheated on her boyfriend and slept with my father, who was also her husband at the time. DNA testing can reveal all kinds of things!

When we did the Ancestry thing, I finally found out who my biological father was. Never met him, he’d already died, but I had a name and a whole slew of half-siblings.

This is far more common than most are aware.

It pops up frequently in the work that I do. I remember one time working with a teenage girl who was suicidal. Her mother was right there observing at the time.

They both freaked out when I said, “It’s like you had two father’s at the same time.”

The impact of this type situation upon the child is severe. The child in the mother’s womb knows that it is unwanted. It causes an underlying personality attribute of never feeling good enough, no matter how successful they are in life.

The child in the womb knows if the mother hated the father. I’ve found this to be the case in over 90% of the cases where I worked with lesbians.

I was doing a demonstration at a conference for a group and a woman volunteered for a demonstration. Ever since I died and crossed over to Heaven and returned to this body, consciousness is physical to my perception. I read the stored memories in people’s souls to help them heal. It’s like instant depth psychology without the person saying one word. It’s hard science.

The woman in the demonstration could not stand up when I touched the memories in her soul about 15 feet from her body. I commented that I had never seen so much anger of the mother toward the birth father. It was extreme.

Then I moved in closer and noticed that after birth she was rejected by her mother.

The woman insisted on telling the group her story, so I said ok. I usually don’t do this due to confidentiality. She said, “My mother was violently raped and we never knew who my father was, thus the extreme anger.”

She then added, “My mother put me up for adoption after I was born, thus my mother rejecting me.”

People have no idea that a child in the womb experiences the mother’s experiences and feelings as thrir own and they are imprinted upon the child’s soul, influencing their personality development.

We usually remove the negative emotion from the person’s soul and their life changes immediately.

The other very frequent situation I encounter is an out of wedlock pregnancy where the couple rushes to marriage due to the pregnancy. I often ask people, “How many months after your parent’s marriage were you born?” The answer was evident without the person saying one word.

People have no idea the impact their actions have upon the child’s life.

While counselling a man in a case of questionable paternity, I explained that he could not be the father of the child because he was type O and the baby was type AB.

I explained ABO typing.

He looked skeptical.

"You don't believe this?" I asked.

"No," he replied. "If that's all true, how come my father is type O and I'm type AB?"

This is why certain religions are passed down through the mother. You never know who the father is, no matter how “committed” the female is to the man.

Take his stories with a large grain of salt.

Most of them are made up of whole cloth.

Many advantages to society; many drawbacks to the concepts of freedom and privacy.

so?

if a spouse/parent/shackup is so worried and concerned that a child is not his, then he will seek a dna test...

loving and loved spouses/parent/shackups don't seek dna testing because they feel sure in their love....
