What does half brother mean? What is the difference between half-born and half-bred children?

Meaning of concepts

According to the ideas of ancestors, blood is inherited through the paternal line, that is, it is transmitted during the process of intrauterine development from father to son or daughter.
As a result, children born to different women from the same man are considered consanguineous relatives. Despite modern advances in genetics and the awareness of the fact that any trait is inherited from both parents, and as a result of genetic modifications, new traits can appear, the concept of a half-brother has remained in use and refers specifically to children born from the same father. Half-brothers are relatives whose internal development took place in the same womb. Thus, the children of one woman are half-siblings. Moreover, even sons born by the same woman from different fathers are considered consanguineous.

It is easy to notice that siblings, in the modern sense, brothers are both half-blooded and half-uterine relatives, which is why they are also called full-blooded.

In what cases is the concept “consolidated” used erroneously?

Often, a similar word is used to describe all new brothers and sisters who appear to divorced men and women after entering into another marriage. However, this is wrong. If partners with offspring from previous relationships conceive a child together after marriage, then it will not be a stepchild for other children. The question arises: who is this relative? In situations where there are incomplete blood ties, other terms are used in regulatory documents:

• uterine - children who have a common mother;
• half-blooded - offspring with a common father.

Thus, the category of consolidation does not correlate with genetics. It is purely a legal fact . Those who were born to different people who remarried have the status of stepbrothers. The relationships of such offspring are based not on blood ties, but on a civilian basis. These relatives cease to be family when the spouses divorce. It doesn't matter here whether they lived together or not. Their stepmothers and stepfathers do not have full powers, are not vested with personal rights to offspring of this category, and are not assigned parental responsibilities. The only exceptions are cases of adoption or transition of such children to adopted status.

Half-sisters and half-brothers are those who become legal parents after the remarriage of their natural mother or father. As a result, offspring born from different people interact in the same cell of society. They have no blood ties because there are no biological similarities. They are considered a family only because of the marriage of one of their parents to a partner who is physiologically foreign to them. They are connected exclusively by family ties, which can be broken during divorce proceedings. But stepdaughters and stepsons can become heirs of a stepfather or stepmother under certain circumstances regulated by law.

A little history

During the heyday of the Great Roman Empire, it was believed that half-brothers were closer and closer to each other than half-brothers. This is explained quite simply: in those days, patriarchy dominated in Rome, so, naturally, a man was held in higher esteem and deserved more respect than a woman. If for some reason it came to dividing the inheritance and a dispute arose between half-brothers, the claims were considered. The discontent of the half-brothers was not taken into account.

In Athens, marriages between half-brothers and sisters were considered possible. While the marriage of half-relatives was prohibited by law.

Abraham, the hero of the Hebrew Bible, married his half-sister.

Indirect blood relationship (through mother and father)

In one generation

Native

Fullbred, blood

- brothers and sisters (in relation to each other), descended from the same father and mother.

• Brother
  - a boy/man in relation to another child(ren) of his parents[2]
  Elder brother
  - a boy/man in relation to a younger child(ren) of his parents.
• A younger brother is a boy/man in relation to the older child(ren) of his parents.
• A married brother (obsolete) is a brother born before the marriage of his parents and recognized by them.

Half-blooded

- having only one common parent. In turn, half-brothers and sisters are divided into:

• Consanguineous (homogeneous) - descended from the same father, but different mothers.
• Monouterine (one-uterine) - descended from the same mother, but different fathers.

Summary

Half-siblings

- children from previous marriages of one of the spouses in relation to children from previous marriages of the other spouse, not related by any blood ties[5];
their position in the pedigree, social and legal status are classified as consanguinity
.
Direct family relations between half-brothers and sisters (and their descendants) will be regarded as characteristic
(see below) until their parents have common children - their
half-brothers
and
half
-brothers.
In this case, all brothers and sisters will become blood relatives through descendants: this is the only and rather interesting point in genealogy, since both the descendants of half-brothers and sisters, and the descendants of their common (half- and half-brothers) brothers and sisters will be related by blood by definition
- and with the parents of brothers and sisters (that is, through a generation), and with the brothers and sisters themselves, and among themselves, respectively.

Cousins

Modern legislation

The main difference between full, half-brothers and half-brothers from the point of view of the laws of modern countries is only in the right of inheritance. In many countries, such as France and Austria, when dividing the inheritance, full brothers are entitled to a share twice as large as that of half- or half-brothers.

The legislation of the Russian Federation has a law regulating the inheritance of half-blooded and half-born children.

In the legislation of the Baltic countries, half- and half-born children do not participate at all in the division of inheritance if the parents, in addition to them, have full-blooded children. If there are no common children, the couple's inheritance is divided between half-brothers and half-brothers.

Commentary on Article 1143. Heirs of the second stage

1. The Code attaches legal significance to inheritance, both direct and

and collateral line of kinship. Brothers and sisters, that is, second degree relatives

on the lateral line, can inherit equally with relatives in the direct ascending line

second degree line. Heirs of the second stage can inherit

in the event that there are no heirs of the first stage, as well as persons inheriting

instead of them by right of representation, or all named persons by any other

the grounds provided for in paragraph two of paragraph 1 of Article 1141 of the Civil Code will not be

are called or will not accept the inheritance.

Full and half-siblings can inherit. Separation

brothers and sisters into full and half siblings is made depending

depends on whether they have a common father and mother or only one of the parents.

Half-brothers and sisters are called half-blooded if they come from

same father, and uterine if they have a common mother. From the specified categories

one should distinguish between half-brothers and sisters who are not related,

since their connection is based on property relations. Step-siblings

do not belong to the second line of heirs and can inherit only in the case

recognizing them as disabled dependents. Since the adoptive parent's natural children

are equal to the blood relatives of the adopted person, they can inherit

his property is equal to that of his siblings.

Therefore, if the half-brother was adopted by the parent, then this is the second priority; if not, then there is no relationship.

After my father's death, my mother inherited 6/8 of the apartment. My father's children (my half-bloods) inherited 1/8 each.

Later, my sister and brother received disabilities - my sister had a stroke (probably group 1) and her brother’s leg was taken away, group 2.

After my mother's death, I entered into inheritance rights. In the Certificate (my) of the right of inheritance, 7/12 goes to me.

At the time I received the certificate of inheritance, my sister died.

Maybe my brother, without informing me, took advantage of his right as a disabled person, or the daughter of a deceased sister?
