I Refused to Tell Anyone Who My Child’s Father Was—Now He’s Back

And with today’s DNA kits, the truth will finally come out:

  • Ask yourself if the tables were turned, how you would feel. Could this ruin your relationship if it comes out later?
    Also, causing a little drama now might be worth preventing a family split later. What if your sister gets pregnant? Do you really want her suffering the way you did? How will she feel when she realizes you kept this from her? How will this make your child feel, seeing their dad be the dad for their cousin, but not you? Let’s be honest, with today’s DNA kits, it will come out eventually.
    Maybe let your sister know that you are okay with her choice to stay with him, or not, and that by telling her, you are not trying to influence her relationship. Let her know you just want her to know everything because you love her and don’t want to keep secrets from her, and you felt like keeping this would cause her more pain, and take away her voice in how she feels about this very random and unlikely situation. © Crafting_with_Kyky / Reddit
  • If it’s 18 years down the road and the kid gets a DNA test and potentially finds out that the cousins are also half-siblings. That will be a nuke in the family. Better to let it out now before it gets worse. © Safe-Damage-409 / Reddit
  • It’s a confusing situation all around, but if you don’t tell her…
    If you don’t tell her and they stay together, what happens when your son grows up and does a DNA test and learns he is the father? Then it’s this huge secret you kept for years from your sister…. If I were the sister, and that was the way it worked out, I don’t know if I would want you in my life anymore.
    It’s going to be a hard conversation and might even have a bad outcome, but I think you should tell her now. © lenorenny / Reddit
