@wolfnurturer well that is sad. Everything I have done and especially the field I work in we allow however many check boxes apply.

@heilwife317 actually some places do not accept that, they say to pick one. Very few places I see have the open option of that.

@wolfnurturer you are allowed to check more than 1 box. And actually legally if you are 11% or more you are allowed to claim that specific background. :)

@heilwife317 No panic, just curiosity. I mean it's not hard to get information about anyone these days with the hackers who just won't do the right thing and hack at min 20k per child into our bank accounts untraceable and untouchable to anyone but us lol. Oh cool, it's nice knowing your background though especially given that circumstance. My kids are super mixed, I'm super multiracial, and SO is fairly mixed as well. A lot of the time mixed though isn't a check box option and that's where it gets tricky to me because who wants to claim one thing when that's not really all of you. You know?

@wolfnurturer no need to panic. 23 and me can't do anything without your consent...which it asks you before you provide the sample to them! My husband and I both did 23 and me and put it in our son's baby book. These days no one is 100% anything so it is neat to see the mix. I am predominately Irish and he is 70% split between German and Polish. I definitely recommend doing them. I was a foster kid so I didn't really know mine until the test. Super awesome!

@nervousmommyca only me is being tested. I'd probably do 23 and me. Idk what they could get from that aside from I have a sad life lol?

Just be careful with those, those companies are not regulated like the medical industry, they don't have to follow HIPAA and can store and sell any data you get from your test including your kids!

super easy *^

mine is super is they are pure danish no other mix 😂
