    That would indicate your mom cheated as well? Not sure exactly what your dad cheating has to do with your DNA. Wouldn’t it be better to find out he wasn’t your dad if he was so shitty?

      We do not want to find my father’s illegitimate children. He was our father, as our mother never cheated.

        our mother never cheated.

        That you know of, or care to know of. To be fair that’s a better reason to not do it. You know your dad is a piece of shit apparently, your mom you have a good image of, and no benefit to the image being tarnished after it matters.

          But what if they’re totally cool people who own a bar in Tahoe or something? You’d be missing out on the fun.

        How does that work? The lab puts you in contact with people they know share your DNA?
