How should a young man deal with his situation after discovering he was swapped at birth? Are his mother and sisters with whom he grew up considered non-mahram, or are they his mother and sisters through suckling if the non-biological mother breastfed him and all his sisters? Is it obligatory for him to honor his biological mother or not?
