Taze away, Yana...
I was reading this article about people's experiences with DNA Databases and it got me thinking.
When I was 17 my ex-girlfriend may have had my baby. She got pregnant at the very end of our relationship and with both of us being 17 her mother put the baby up for adoption. There is a whole lot more to the story, but the nut of it is that I was repeatedly told that I was not the farther of this little girl of whom I have never met. However, my two best buds at the time did meet this little girl, and both of them independently swore that her child could belong to no one other than me. Granted, in the eyes is 17yos.
I was reading that article and I thought; what if she has spent the last x years searching for her dad? If I am actually her father and I don't do it will she spend the rest of her life searching? That sounds awful, but what are the consequences to actually getting the test? Short of never doing able to live my dream of being a serial killer. I have heard that insurance companies might be able to use the info for coverage, or raising the rates for life insurance, but I don't know it that's just a rumor.
How about you kids? Have you done it? Would you do it? What do you figure the downside to be? I kind of figure 'they' will have it all soon enough if they don't already have it.
