Should you keep paternity secrets from your children? Oga Obinna weighs in

Should you tell your children the truth if you find out they aren’t biologically yours?

This question has sparked heated debates online, with opinions sharply divided. Recently, a social media post suggested that fathers who discover they aren’t the biological parents of their children should keep this information secret to avoid traumatizing the kids.

 

The post read, “If you ever find out your kids aren’t yours, I think you should keep such information away from those kids and continue your fatherly duty. These kids grew up knowing you as their father, now imagine how traumatizing it would be for the kids when you boldly face them to tell.”

 

Kenyan personality Oga Obinna didn’t hold back in his response. He passionately countered, “Hehehhe. Tell the kids the TRUTH! Don’t allow them to grow up thinking they have a deadbeat father yet you are also a VICTIM of a PROMISCUOUS woman. Tell them and step. Go where you are valued and respected enough to be told the truth. If you choose to stay, it should be your choice not blackmail.”

 

Obinna’s response quickly gained traction, igniting a wave of reactions. Many netizens rallied behind his call for honesty, arguing that children deserve to know the truth about their parentage. Supporters believe that maintaining the lie does a disservice to both the father and the children, fostering a relationship built on deception.

 

Those siding with Obinna emphasize the importance of transparency in building trust within a family. They argue that, while the truth might be painful, it ultimately respects the children’s right to know their true origins and helps them understand their family’s complex dynamics.

 

However, the suggestion to reveal such sensitive information has its critics. Opponents worry about the emotional impact on the children, fearing that such revelations could shatter their sense of security and family unity. They argue that the psychological trauma from such a truth could be far more damaging than the lie itself.

 

This debate touches on broader societal issues, including the repercussions of infidelity and the delicate balance of parental responsibilities. In Kenyan culture, where family honor and cohesion are highly valued, paternity secrets often remain taboo.

 

Oga Obinna’s stance is a bold call for truth and self-respect. He urges men to make informed decisions based on honesty, rather than succumbing to societal pressures or emotional blackmail. Whether or not one agrees with his viewpoint, Obinna’s comments have sparked crucial conversations about the nature of fatherhood, respect, and the role of truth in family relationships.
