Strawberry Letter: I Need to Let My Son Know He’s My Son

Dear Steve and Shirley,

I need your help on this. I have a son that is 15 years old that knows nothing about me because of his mother. She got pregnant and left I couldn’t find her for years. She was out of the country and there was no way to get in touch with her I had no number or address for her. So I did a search and found her father. We talked and he knew who I was, I asked him about my son and how I could get in touch with my son’s mother. To make a long story short she got married when my son was about two years old so he thinks this guy is his DADDY. He is not his Daddy. I don’t know what to do. I tried to put myself in my son’s shoes to see how he is going to feel knowing that the guy he thought was his father for so long is not. I talked to his mother and his stepfather and they don’t want to tell him the truth. Life is too short and I’ve already missed 15 years of his life. I’ve lost my father and in January of this year, I lost my mother. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone. I just want to get to know my son. What kind of man turns his back and just walks away. I’ve seen him on Facebook but I can’t tell him like that. PLEASE HELP
