Well, props to her for being honest.. But I don't see why she would just drop that bombshell out of nowhere.

now the real question is how did your dad react? Did it happen in some nutty 3-way thing, or are do your parents have an open relationship? I can understand that this would definitely be really hard to take in, but hey, you've got a new brother!

His father seems to be not yours. Sucks

Unless the mom and the dad, Michael, are still together then I don't see a problem. My sister and I have different dads and many siblings do..

Michael had become infertile during a battle with a ninja, irreversivly damaged by a well-placed kick, but was rescued by a kind buddhist monk named Kevin. OP's mom was devastated because she didn't want OP to grow up alone without siblings, so the kind monk came to the rescue again offering unlimited intercourses until attainment of pregnancy. Moved by his generosity, Michael and Mum decided to honour the monk naming the newborn after him. And that's how Kevin Jr was born. OP FMLed because she is a Chinese communist and dislikes buddhist monks. There you go!

Maybe either Michael is your real dad and not Kevin, whom your mom is with or she is cheating

This FML is a lot less exciting if OP's step dad is named Kevin.
