[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of this is pretty interesting. I have a great family but if someone came up to me and said they were my half sibling I absolutely would not want to know. Family is who you were raised with and not some random love child of my parents. I'd be angry and would wonder what they want from my family.

Also, are illegitimate children considered heirs? Would my parent's inheritance have to be split with them?[/quote]

Yes, pretty interesting. It so happens that my father had a child out of wedlock before he married my mom and had my sister and me.  He had no contact with the child as far as I know.  Lo and behold, when I was 32, a random guy makes contact and says he's my half sibling.  Okay.  Met him briefly and we have nothing in common, very different class of life and expectations.  Told him afterwards I have no wish to have a relationship and do not consider him a brother but wish him well.  All kinds of unpleasantness ensues and I'm like, for what? You can't force me to feel things I don't feel.  What my dad is on him.  I'm not a part of any of this. Leave me alone.[/quote]
