She is incredibly selfish to do this to another child.

This is dangerously illogical.

I hope the baby is Meyers. I hope they marry and QUIETLY live happily ever after with lots more babies. Shame is good and it shuts up.

I hope so too. But I think they both would have gone through with the marriage on time if it were his.

It is neither dangerous nor illogical. Good for her, for not aborting. Now, do the right thing and allow this child to have a father who married the mother. Adoption, if she can’t work it out.

Boys without fathers grow up knowing that men don’t matter.

Girls without fathers repeat the cycle of choosing poorly or choosing to forgo a spouse.

Think I’m wrong? Look at groups in America with high illegitimacy rates.
