It was used in that case to describe the biological parents. he child isn't natural, the blood parents are. (natural father/natural mother) it means the same as biological. Biological is just a more modern PC version of the same legal term of natural when talking about the parents. Even when children are born legitimate their parents are still natural, they're just no need to define it as such, as the courts (or society, in the case of slander or gossip) have no need to define the the "natural" parent of a child.

Benzel By definition biological and natural parents are the same. Legacy does provide at times as many socio- and religious group lingo options as possible, such as Christening vs. Baptizing. Just depends on you're flavor which one you use. Marc --- On Sun, 8/28/11, M. Brenzel <[email protected]> wrote: From: M.

First, can someone confirm what the list of choices are by default in Legacy? I don’t recall adding any to this list. Second, can someone explain to me what the difference is between “Natural” and “Biological”? In my mind, they are the same. Thanks!
