    Is it just me or does the child in that picture look like it's about to be devoured by two hunchbacks?

    Genetic sexual attraction.

    Loads of cases where half brothers and sisters meet for the first time, then fall in love. Very hard life for them.
    Incest is one of the last taboos of western culture, and for people who are overwhelmingly attracted to each other ,whether or not they are that closely related must be very difficult to deal with.

    Man has son with woman. Man fights for years for parental rights, and loses. Man has daughter with another woman.

    You can guess the rest. That's why father's rights are important kids.
    here is a good point for
    justice 4 fathers
    and no lies on birth certs
    there are men out there with maybe three or four children with different women
    and women doing the same

    Half-brother & half-sister meet as strangers. Half-brother & half-sister fall in love. Half-brother & half-sister have a kid together.

    We've got a sub for that.

    I'm going to hazard a guess and assume that it's a misspelling of sibling.

    That would make sense because the story centres around two half-siblings that ended up together.

    So to my mind, that adds up. I could be way off here though, mind.

    Obviously, your intellect cannot handle the nuances and dynamics of untraditional family relationships. The rest of us really knows the true meaning of subling. In fact, I might be doing it later.

    If we were in the pub having a few pints & a laugh, there'd be so many responses I'd have for that post & you'd probably find them quite funny, but hate me at the same time.

    But for now, I'll say nothing!

    welcome to my world....athlone, county westmeath, st mel terrace to be precise... i dont live there btw, but the population of this place was spawned from simlar inter family relations.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,971 ✭✭✭we'llallhavetea_old


    i think there are gonna be more and more stories like this.

    it's terrible to think about it.. the owner of the sperm which helped make my fabulous princess, was/is a terrible whore, goodness knows how many kids he's made at this stage...

    when my daughter starts dating and brings the boys to meet me for the first time;

    nice to meet you there sonny, did you bring that birth cert i was looking for?

    :(


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion

    Why - do you think you might have some kids somewhere that you don't know about?

    :D

    The couple do not want their identities revealed because they fear that to do so would have a devastating impact on their young son. They believe their little boy would be stigmatised by society and singled out for ridicule by his school mates

    .....after they finish laughing at his flipper hands,backward teeth and one giant eye in the middle of his face.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,893 ✭✭✭The_B_Man


    jesus sure they give all their names in the article. Vincent, Maura, Tom etc etc.
    Anyone that knows them could piece things together very easily.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭Bazzy


    I heard Joe fritzel has started a facebook campaign to support them

    tbh stopped reading after daily mail


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,865 ✭✭✭Mrs Garth Brooks


    I thought subling was a spelling mistake. And it probably is because the couple discovered they are in fact siblings.

    But a subling is the offspring of those type of parents. Check it out on wikipedia. A whole page of info. Very interesting.

    I just checked and it's also a crazee nickname bestowed on sub-editors.

    You learn something new every day. :pac:

    No, their names were changed for the article. Still, Ireland is small, someone will figure it out soon enough


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,811 ✭✭✭Gone Drinking


    They don't want to reveal their identities because of the amount of stick they'll get in the local pub.

    "Hey look, its bob. Yo Bob, are you still riding your sister? Lolololol"

    Ps, i said titties lololulrlol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,580 ✭✭✭Splendour


    A friend of mine married a guy a few years ago and they had a child (female) together. (They have since separated). He already had a child (male) from a previous relationship but refuses to let each child know of the other. This is crazy stuff as they could very easily meet each other and have a repeat of the opening topic.
    However my friend will definitely go against her ex's wishes and tell her daughter of her half brother.

    They're just made up names for the article.

    The real names are "Luke" and "Leia".

    What confuses me about the story, is that the father was denied access to his son, but surely he still knew who he was? He must have known his name and all those sort of details. How did he not figure it out when he was introduced to his son?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,072 ✭✭✭PeterIanStaker


    . . . they began to suspect they were siblings after their son, Forrest Cleatus Bubba Billy-Bob Junior, won the local banjo playing contest, thanks to his seven fingers. .

    That part wasn't clear to me from the story either.
