Has this happened to you?

Raising another man's child(ren).

More and more men are discovering that they are raising other man's child(ren), is this you?

Is doing a DNA test in a marriage regarded as taboo?

If you have suspicions rather satisfy your curiosity and have one done.

Conducting a DNA test of your "child(ren)" should not be seen as such, but for your own peace of mind, knowing that you are indeed caring for your own child(ren) do it.

When you do the DNA test you will be assured that INDEED, this person is your child and if they ain't, that you have at least been given a choice.

That you have been afforded the opportunity to make a conscious decision, should you then wish to take care of another man's child at least you were in the know.

If the results are not in your favour, do you leave your family that you set out to build? That is a hard decision to make and mediation is then key.

Children's court can be of assistance to you or if you are close to a facility to draw bloods for DNA testing why not do so.

Let no one take away your ability to choose, and choose wisely.

An interesting week.

Don't pay a contractor for work in December.

Why do I say this...

If you envisage that the work will be complete in that month before factories close, then forget that thought.

That contractor has already planned how your hard earned money will contribute to his or her lavish Christmas break and to pay bonuses I might add.

Experience gives you the intuition to know and do better.

Learn from the experienced...wait for Mid-January if you can and instruct the contractor then.

Don't show off either by paying all in advance, pay a deposit and balance on completion. Why do you want to pay all in advance when the contractor hasn't even started? Some clients I note, learn the hard way.

End result you will be booking a consultation for breach of contractor.

Be savvy out there...🥂
