My dad is raising someone Else's child do you think the child will grow up to resent not knowing his real dad

Answer 1

no i dont think so your dad is doing a very good job it cant be easy to raise someone elses child...........the child i think wont resent him but will have lots of questions for him as to why he doesnt want anything to do with raising him but as long as the child is being loved by his mum and your dad i think he will appreciate the fact that your dad isnt going to abondon him.... i hope this helps you somewhat

Answer 2

The child need not know that your dad isn't his biological father. Anyway how can you be sure that he is your real dad, he obviously doesn't mind bringing other people's children up as his own, this other child may not be the first. Do you resent your father, have you ever?
Good luck and may peace be with you.

Answer 3

The person that take's care of the child's need's and is there for the child that's the parent, but having said that he /she will feel that they have been misled , I think its better to come out straight and tell the truth , nobody can say how he'll react when he find's out , to be told by someone on the street ? at least be honest with the child and he'll appreciate the truth .your dad is a good man don't undo all the good work by not telling the truth .has he/she not a right to know.

Answer 4

So long as everyone is open and honest about his real dad then there is no reason why. Does the real dad want to play a part in the childs life, if he doesn't that must be explained. If later in life the child wants to find their real dad then support is essential.

Answer 5

There are plenty of children in the same situation. If he has nothing but a happy childhood by a decent hard-working role model, and is treated like one of the family by the other relations, there should be no problem.

There will alway's be that wondering though, it's human nature. But it's the person who was always there will always be Dad.

Answer 6

No way your dad is the person who teaches you to ride a bike and fixes your toys. The person who brings you to the shop when your mother is away and the person who is always there no matter what trouble you're in. When that kid grows up he/she is going to be so grateful that they got the chance to have a dad that so many other children don't.

Answer 7

Absolutely not. Nobody has "I am the biological parent" stamped on their forehead. It is all to do with parenting and love. Information is important too. The child should be given the appropriate amount of information at the appropriate time as to who it's father really is and then if it handled sensitively there should be fewer problems.

Answer 8

his real dad is not here so that makes your dad his dad, good for him, there should be more men like him out there....i don't see this kid resenting anyone when he's older...if he's been taken care of well, then there should not be a problem

Answer 9

There is always gonna be an interest but if you point out that he chooses to raise this child, and he does not do because he has too......Be fair and treat the child like his own, he will realise when he is older how lucky he is...............

Answer 10

He probably will. Most children who grow with someone else teaching them fatherly skills instead of their real father, usually grows up not wanting to ever meet their dad because he hasn't been their for them, or he will grow up wanting to meet his father but once confronting them, they'll want to show all of their anger and emotions with him.
