I am sure your mom would understand you wanting to see your new brother/sister. You and your dad still have a right to a relationship and this is something you should be a part of. Take a deep breath and talk to mom about your feelings.

I'm sorry that you're facing this situation -- it's a tough one. I understand that you want to see your dad and the new baby, but your dad hasn't done the right thing by leaving you and your mom and going off with someone else and having another kid out of wedlock. It sets a horrible example for you.
Maybe your mother was glad to be rid of him; I can't tell from your post. But this has to be a very painful ordeal for her. If you talk to your mother about this, be very open and honest with her. Acknowledge that it must be painful for her. Tell her that you do not think it is right that your dad left the family and now is starting over with someone else, just like you and your mom never happened. But if you want to have a relationship with your half-sibling, the little baby, tell your mom that. Tell her that maybe YOU can be a good influence on the child, so that he or she doesn't follow in the path of your dad, who sounds like a sorry character.
Sorry to be so blunt, but I have a real problem with people who ditch their spouses and children and go off and start "new" families. It's wrong.

Tough situation. Well, the baby is your brother/sister and you should know them. Assuming that you have a descent relationship with your father, there is no rational reason why you should not be justified in asking to see the baby. It will be tough for your mom I presume, so understand that she may not be happy about it, but reassure her that you still love her and I think you'll be OK. Good luck!

Be honest. It may be hard for your Mom to hear the question but if she's a good Mom she will understand that the baby is your sibiling and you have every right to go se him or her. I'd ask while you help her make supper. Good luck sweetie.

tell your mom that you'd like to see the baby because you want to see what they're like at such a young age. It is a normal thing to do and that she is your 1/2 sister and that she needs to accept that one day you will have a real loving relation ship with her.

If i were you, i would ignore the person call dad for the rest of my life. He left you and your mom and you still want to see him??? Get on with your life and look towards a better future.

Tell her you want to meet your sibling. This baby will probably be around long after your parents pass away (of old age way in the distant future). It is important that you know him or her, you are family and share family and you need each other.

your mom is mature enough to know this thing and if you have a good relationship with her just talk nicely for you to see the baby
i think the best time when shes in a good mood or in a weekends when shes relax---asked her nicely i think you will find your answer

Ask a permission from your mom politely...
