Mama's Baby, Papa's Maybe? - How to Navigate Finding out Your Child isn't Biologically Yours.

In this episode, we sit down with Al Harper, a father of two, for an honest and vulnerable conversation about fatherhood, identity, and emotional resilience. Al opens up about the moment he learned that one of his children was not biologically his—and the shock, pain, and confusion that followed. Together, we explore what it means to process betrayal while still showing up as a father, how Black men are often expected to carry pain in silence, and how love, responsibility, and commitment can exist beyond DNA.This episode dives into navigating co-parenting, being a stepfather, and redefining masculinity and fatherhood in the face of unexpected truths. It’s a conversation about grief, growth, and what it really means to be a dad—especially in the Black community.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
