In his words: “I honestly think DNA test is not important unless someone is dragging your child with you. If you have a child you are raising, you don’t need to go finding out the paternity. Every child is your child. A father is someone who raised a child, not necessarily the sperm giver. Save yourself the heart attack and protect that child’s emotions too.”
