Woman Realizes Her Late Brother’s Baby Isn’t His After Testing Her Suspicions, Ruins SIL’s Life

A mother can almost always be 100% sure that a baby is hers. Fathers, on the other hand, don’t have the same luxury. In fact, around 1% to 10% of dads find out that the children they have been raising aren’t actually theirs.

This man wasn’t around anymore to discover this, but his sister did the digging for him. After the results came in, they shocked the family, and the mother found out the hard way that messing with people’s lives can result in you losing custody of your child and spending some time behind bars.

    Hi there, fellow pandas! As a person (over)educated both in social sciences and literature, I'm most interested in how we connect and behave online (and sometimes in real life too.) The human experience is weird, so I try my best to put its peculiarities in writing. As a person who grew up chronically online, I now try to marry two sides of myself: the one who knows too much about MySpace, and the one who can't settle and needs to see every corner of the world.

    The YTAs are idiots as usual. She took advantage of the brother’s handicap to scam him and his family and she deserved to be called out. I’m glad that she received jail time, has to pay back the child support, AND the true father got custody. Actions? Meet consequences.

    Is it possible her brother knew? People have all kinds of arrangements and agreements

    Anyone lying about who the father is, especially when it denies the child a relationship with said father, is not a good mother.

    Generally I agree, but there are a lot of exceptions: history of violence from father, s****l interest in children, substance a***e, r**e of the mother. Just off the top of my head. I would support a mother denying access to the father for any of those.
