Phil and the group,

Hi. Happy holidays. Thank you for the great link. That was a very interesting article. I heard others refer to it in the past but never read the full story.

Personally, I think that's one of the best things about polyamory, besides the sex and additional family dynamics. 

The gene pool's diversified and we all benefit from that. It also creates a perm. bond between the female and the other male end of the triad or quad family who fathered the child.

I look forward to expanding our family in this way and fully expect not to be the biological father of all my wife's children.  It takes more than just DNA to be father. 

Does anyone else feel this way as well? What are some of the experiences of other members who have this actual situation in their dyad, triad, quad or other relationship? 

Any tips for us as we'll be having another child next year, which is almost here. 

We hope that you had a great holiday season and have a safe and exceptional New Year.

P.S. Again, thank all of you for responding to my previous posts. I didn't agree with everyone and the converse holds true as well but it generated a plethora of thoughtful and constructive debate. After all, isn't that what we are here for besides sharing stories, tips and info on events/conference and religious/philosophical debates.
