Is he mad you said half or what. But at that point you still said siblings your not taking that away from them
Ya he was all it doesn't matter if they have different moms their still siblings blah blah blah! I was like chill is not like I'm saying they aren't related!
My step daughter knows that her and her brothers have a different mom but that doesn't means she loves them any less then if they had the same mom. Tell him to relax.
Its the technical term. I don't see why it matters. I have a half sister and a step brother. But my full blood sister and I don't treat them any different. We aren't even blood related to our brother but we treat him like we are
Ya exactly! My sister is my half sister and I love her more than anything!! Idk why he freaked but he's irritating me!
He may be upset bc it's doesn't matter. Growing up most people feel a sibling is just a sibling no matter what. Personally I know with black homes, we don't use the term half or step, with family your just family. He may have felt like the kids shouldn't feel like anything separates them
I agree with her^^ in black family's we just say brother and sister not half brother or half sister.
Yeah i could see why he was upset. My daughter has a brother that isnt my child but i never tell her its her half brother i just say its her brother. She has asked me why he doesnt live with us and i simply say "he has a different mommy" thats all she needs to know as she gets older she'll figure it out no need to make a point of it now.
In my family all my siblings have different fathers. But I have never once pointed out to any of them that we are only half siblings.
It's upset him that you have pointed out to his kids that your child is only half related to them. You've made him have a conversation with his kids that he wasn't ready to have. It doesn't matter to children. Family is family
Without offending you- I don't understand why you would tell the kids its their half sibling? Why emphasis on half? Is it the importance to you they know the structure or was it just said without planning? ..
I'm honestly just wondering x
^^ love your answer Lucymarie1991:)
They asked how try were siblings when they didn't have the same mom and I said they were half siblings. Idk what the big deal is and why I'm getting crap from everyone. I never said it made them any less related or that they would love each other any less. They asked and I answered. Idk what being black has anything to do with this so idk why so many people posted that but whatever. I wasn't doing it to prove a point I did it to answer a question
All you had to say was that siblings don't always have the same mom. Because their daddy is also the baby's daddy that is how they are siblings.
Well I didn't... Do you have a time machine? Ok so your advice doesn't mean crap.. Thanks
You asked why your partner was pissed. I answered. Maybe next time when it's a sensitive topic with his kids you let him deal with it
