So for context my mum is British but my stepdad who raised from the age of 4 is Belgian born and bred. My grandparents from him are both Belgian, I have been to Belgium more times than I remember going all over the country, he raised me in a way a Belgian man would with no British cultural input. I was raised with Belgian mannerisms, cooking, entertainment and culture from him. I understand Belgian politics, culture and jokes. Can I consider myself as being half Belgian or Belgian at all when he’s not my blood related father.
