One DNA discovery in a family is often more than enough...so what happens when there are nine?

Stephen Anderson never expected that his decades of family research using traditional methods--genealogical records and oral histories--would be turned into a years-long journey to unravel the truth around his paternity and that of his many siblings. Steve is today’s guest on the third episode of DNA Clarity and Support. He admits to the host Brianne that didn’t want to write his book A Broken Tree, but that he felt like he had to. 

Listen as Steve describes what it’s like to be part of a large family in which reactions to an NPE (“not parent expected”) discovery varied greatly and how the outcomes of each discovery were also not the same.

Steve offers advice to fellow NPEs about the importance of forgiveness and how he found his way to peace after three intense years of emotional pain.
