You dicover that your wonderful one-year-old child not yours.....

My first thought would be to think of how to have the two children. And there is a way maybe. Surely the other family discovered that too because only the hospital could find that out. So I would try to befriend the other family and raise the two children as brothers.

I think I would be devestated! I would still want to raise the child I have had for the last year. In a year, you really get to know a child. You help to mold them into who they are. I wouldnt want to give that up. I wouldnt want to have to try to figure out a new child that I constantly compare to the one I had for a year! I also dont think it would be fair to the child to trade them at that age. They will have gotten attached to the only parents they have known. I think it would be devestating to the children to all of a sudden be placed in a completely new home with strangers! I would try to form a relationship with the other parents. I would want the children to get to know each other. I would want to be able to love both of the children and spend time with both of them. I dont think there would be any problems if everyone could form a friendship. I think that would be my priority.

Wow! That is such a hard question. I have no idea what I would do because I would always wondered in the back of my mind what if. Since the baby is only a year old I would probably take my real child with me because you have no idea if the other parents are good or bad. For example, 20yrs down the line you see your real child in a messed up situation your thinking to yourself I could have done something and I didnt.

if the love for the child is good enough then i will keep but as you said to talk to the so called parents of your real child is a what i will also do.
