I was wondering, if a condition is found in a child and it turns out to be genetic are both parents tested to see who it comes from?. From genetic testing can you find out if the father is the true biological father if the condition can only be passed on by one of the parents and neither parent carries that particular gene? If from genetic testing you find out that the father is not the true biological father does the doctor/health team have a legal obligation to inform the father in question? I would be happy if you could answer these questions as i'm unsure as to how genetic testing works and to how much information you can find out from undertaking a genetic test.
