Also "Turned out my father isn't my real dad" is BS. Genetic test results are useless for determining such.

Wait, what now? The AncestryDNA test isn't WGS, but it analyzes 700K loci. One can infer relatedness with an insanely high degree of accuracy with that number. For reference, the standard US paternity test uses 20 loci and it's more than 99% accurate.

Or do you mean one needn't be a biological parent to be a real father to a child? I agree with that 100%.

Correct!
