Mummy’s Little Secret

 Geneticists have stumbled upon this phenomenon “Mummy’s Little Secret” in the course of conducting large population studies and hunting for genes that cause diseases such as cystic fibrosis. They find full siblings to be half-siblings, fathers who are genetic strangers to more than one of their children and uncles who are much closer to their nieces and nephews than anyone might guess. Lumped under the heading of “pedigree errors,” these so-called mis-paternities, false paternities and non-paternities are all science jargon for the unwitting number who are chips off someone else’s block.

Years Relevant to this blog in respect of this phenomenon

In relation to the above year a relative of the husband   commented that the child was very pensive now at point the child was only 18 months old so it was not a comment that could make at the time however pensive also means the reflection of and that relation had done a design contract approx five years earlier for the person they believed was the natural father of the pensive child and could see the similarities to the natural father and his  children by his marriage

The widespread use of DNA analysis has presented science and society with all sorts of new ethical problems, and now it’s pulling this naked truth out of the closet and into the courtroom. Men who call themselves “Duped Dads” are looking for legal redress to protect themselves against paternity fraud, raising questions about the definition of fatherhood. Several U.S. states are considering legislation that could exempt non-biological fathers from having to pay child support. Last month, the 10-per-cent non-paternity rate was cited during a science seminar for judges in Halifax.

No geneticist believes non-paternity to be purely the product of modern immorality; they have been tripping over the infidelities of earlier generations for decades.

Some peg the range at 5 to 10 per cent; others,  feel that 15 per cent is reasonable for the Western world, even if there is no hard evidence.

A British survey conducted between 1988 and 1996 confirmed the 10-per-cent figure.  women have no trouble believing it. . . . It’s the men who can’t.”

In the early 1970s, a schoolteacher in southern England assigned a class science project in which his students were to find out the blood types of their parents. The students were then to use this information to deduce their own blood types (because a gene from each parent determines your blood type, in most instances only a certain number of combinations are possible). Instead, 30 per cent of the students discovered their dads were not their biologically fathers.

That same year, researchers at St. Andrew’s University in Scotland concluded that women seem to desire different types of men at different times of the month. When they are most likely to conceive, they are attracted to men who have very masculine features, preferring more feminine men when they are not ovulating.

The researchers suggested that women may subconsciously feel that beefy men may make a better biological contribution to a baby, but softer features may signal a better father.

Between 30 and 50 per cent of women cheat on their partners, compared with 50 to 80 per cent of men The American Association of Blood Banks reports that 30 per cent of men who suspect they are not biological fathers are right
