Home Paternity Test at Rite Aid

by Eliza on April 8th, 2008

dna.jpgNow you can actually get a home paternity test from over the counter. Guess it means many won’t be going to the doctor to have their test done, not unless they wanted absolute certainty.

All you need to do is take the cotton swab and swab the inside of your mouth, spouse’s mouth and baby’s mouth. Seal them back in their own seperate containers and mail them off. The kits have everything you need and will cost $29.99 but the lab tests will costs $119 and you get them back within a week.

You can also test for various disease.  A positive test doesn’t mean you won’t get the disease though so do keep that in mind. However a 99% match for a baby’s daddy is just about as accurate as you can be, that is unless they have a brother.

What do you think about stores such as Rite Aid and Meijer stores carrying Home Paternity Kits? Honestly I see this a great idea, now at least everyone will be able to show proof and not have to pay a fortune to prove it.

    […] Babylune is discussing the recent availability of paternity tests at neighborhood drug stores.  Is that a good thing or a bad one? […]

    I know I posted my thoughts on this on another blog, but now I can’t find it. None the less, I think that these tests have the potential to destroy families. Can you imagine the trauma to a child, say 6 years old, who finds out that her daddy is not really her daddy? yes, there are some benefits, but overall, I worry about the outcome when children and margins of error are involved.
