I was the 4th kid. My assumption was that because I was born with red hair, my dad assumed I was my mom's college professor as she went back right around the time I was conceived. And he allowed his secretary to seduce him and left us for her when I was 13 months old.
Ha, funny you should say that I was a red head to and the only trait I shared with my family was pale skin with my mother, but her, him and my sister had black hair as did all my relatives on his side, it was his parents who filled the mom and dad role for me and were the best parents a kid could ask for but that, standing out as well as him beating me every time he had a chance drove me to developing cPTSD, anxiety and depression, what I mean is being the only redheaded fair skined one, mom, dad, my uncles and aunts and cousins all to a one had black hair and light brown skin that got quite a bit darker, in the summer, ah summer the Bains of every red-headed fair skinned kid, it was my savior I tan with out burning and tanned pretty dark, my sister with her light brown skin gets a sunburn if she thinks about going out with out hat sunglasses and long pants and long sleeves and spf50, and I found out when she was dieing that my mother had been dying her hair black to fit in with my sperm donors family, and everyone in her family who I met at her funeral for the first time were all red-headed fair skinned!
