With the rising state of infidelity in the country, there have been calls for men to do DNA tests to determine whether they are the true father of their children. I have always believed being a father is well beyond putting sperm in a woman and then having a child after nine months. If that is the criteria for being one, then any idiot can be a father.

My question is: If you found out your kids weren't yours, would it change your feelings towards them as their father?

A lot people here might want to pretend to go for nurture. But the truth is this is Africa. Nigeria at that. If a Woman can’t bear a Nigeria man a son, he automatically becomes less a man. And the woman suffers emotionally. Talkmore of infidelity from the woman and having kids from another man. A Nigerian man can use cutlass on the woman.

But parenthood has to do with nurture. A lot couples do adopt kids and call the kids their own. Also a lot men are a father figure to a lot.

The woman matter is something else as it obviously changes one’s disposition towards her, but the kids are faultless and the fact they carry someone else's gene shouldn’t define whether one is the father or not. The fact that people adopt kids and love them even more than their biological ones is a testament that nurture plays a dominant role in fatherhood.

Men should stop using DNA result to sever ties with the children. They are much yours than anyone else.

Not a damn thing! The woman is a goner though but my kids would be mine as long as they see me as their father.
