'I don't consider him and I to be family - we're biologically related'.
Parenthood can sometimes be a bit of a shock to the system – it’s a lot of responsibility and there really is no one-size-fits-all approach to raising kids.but never wanted to be a parent to a child at all.
‘I got a call from a second cousin, let’s say Jack, who had done an ancestry DNA thing a while back. Recently he was contacted by someone it turns out is my biological child.‘He wanted to connect. I told him to tell him I am happy to give him family medical history, mentioned if he is going to have a kid with someone Jewish to test for Tay-Sachs, but that I’m not interested in contact.’
‘Then this last weekend I get a call from security at the entrance gate, my second cousins were there and wanted to be allowed in.’ ‘He said it wasn’t about my money and I said I believed him and honestly this wasn’t about my money to me either.
