Is There Any Relation Word Like A Half Brother Or Sister? by Ggoo: 9:10pm On Jul 07, 2019 |
Hello. I have sisters from the same father but different mothers. Whenever they are introducing me, they tagged it "my half brother" which get me pissed at times. The funniest thing is that they don't call their same mother and different fathers brother or sister "half". They are even addressing a far relative which is well to do as " my brother". One of them sometimes referred to me as "my father pikin". I don't know what's your take on this but I think maybe because I haven't arrived yet and still hustling to become somebody. |

Ggoo: usually half brothers/sisters get the nasty attitude from a bitter parent. generally where there is a half sister/brother means parents separated and when one get introduced, you get treated as if you are the reason they separated then usually when you are raised by one parent and born of different fathers/mother you would rarely call each other half simple because though you might have different fathers/mothers the fact that one parent raised you both or more you become sort of a team hence you brush off the HALF BROTHER/SISTER label |

Look at it from the perspective that people tend to connect more to siblings who are from the same womb, different fathers than the same father, different mothers. 1 Like |
