Parents concerned about wayward teen
You've been together for 29 years. I assume you have your reasons for staying with him, but I wish you believed that you deserved better.
Dear Amy: "Confused Brother" was contacted by a half-brother via DNA testing. You suggested he discretely ask his father if he had donated sperm.
Amy! Why assume that? Maybe his father had an affair. Maybe his MOTHER had an affair. Did you ever consider that?!
Upset
Dear Upset: In the first line of the letter, "Confused Brother" notes that his half-brother said he never knew his father because his birth was the result of artificial insemination. That was my first clue.
