[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that you put "daughter" in quotes and mention the woman's mother is your father's common law wife shows that you have issues with this family situation.

Also you say you are your father's only child.  I am sorry but [b]while you may be his only biological child you are not his only child.[/b] Being considered someone child is not a title reserved only for this who share genes with their parents.  I am sure you are aware of familes where the child is not biologically related to one or both parents.

Again, I think this goes back to how you feel about your fathers new family.  If this woman considers your father her father I have to feel a bit sad that you two women don't see yourself as sisters.

I have to ask you,  if your father were married to his domestic partner and had adopted the daughter would you feel the same? [/quote]

This. She is your father's daughter, not his "daughter".  He has two daughters, one biological. If she had been formally adopted would you still insist that she's not his real daughter? Obviously the legal formalities don't mean a lot to your dad, but that doesn't mean the relationships aren't real.

Congratulations! You have a sister. [/quote]
