He Blew Up At His Mom After Finding Out He’s The Product Of An Affair And His Dad Isn’t Really His Biological Father
Two weeks ago, this 17-year-old boy learned that his father was not his biological father. His mother dropped this bombshell while she and his dad were fighting, and she shouted in spite that he wasn’t even his dad’s child, and this was proven via a paternity test.
“I was sad and extremely furious after learning this fact. Dad seemed defeated more than angry,” he said.
For his entire life, he and his father had a close bond. After his mother’s confession, his dad assured him that his relationship with him wouldn’t change and that he would always consider him to be his son. In a rage, he yelled at his mom and name-called her.
At first, she was furious with him, but then she started sobbing uncontrollably.
Over the last two weeks since this revelation, the anger he felt for his mother hasn’t subsided. Unfortunately, he has experienced what it feels like to be betrayed by a romantic partner. Last year, his now ex-girlfriend was unfaithful to him, and he was understandably devastated.
“I cannot fathom how someone could cheat on their significant other and keep lying to their face for over a decade,” he explained.
His mother’s infidelity has changed the way he views her. He no longer viewed her as his mother, and in a moment, the feelings of love and respect for her evaporated.
“I am planning on going no-contact with my mom and removing her from my life after leaving the house for college this summer,” he shared.
His entire family, his father included, have pleaded with him to reconsider this decision.

Some family members from his mother’s side of the family have accused him of being unappreciative of everything his mother has done for him, and they don’t think it’s fair for him to cut off communication with his mother.
In addition, his mom has pleaded with him to stay in touch with her after he moves out for college, and she’s repeatedly attempted to express how sorry she is.
However, he can’t wrap his head around the idea of forgiving his mother right now.
What advice would you give him? What would you do if you were in his shoes?
