The only person done dirty is the child
Excuse Me!!
I feel sorry for the child and the man. Imagine finding out that a child you love is not yours. You still love that child, however if you get married again, should your new wife also pay financially for the BITC#@$ deciet?
When the courts rule that a man must pay or you go to jail, and the same judge says he will not enforce visitation rights, when the c@%& moves to another state with the very pr*%@ that impregnated her. I'm sorry the but the man who believed in his vows is the one that gets screwed.
When that child turns 18 and she wants nothing to do with the man paying for her upbringing, but never could afford to visit her for the very reason he paid out the F#^*&^! as%#* for said child.
No, I personally feel for the man.
How about not doing the deed unprotected with someone who has functioning ovaries and uterus, until you KNOW HER well enough to *know* that you can trust her not to put horns on you?
These guys who live like a CBS sitcom--hopping in and out and in and out of bed with just anyone--and then whine about child support make me sick. If you COULD be the father and you don't challenge the matter before the baby has a chance to bond with you, tough!!! Be a man and support the kid. If you made a baby with someone who turns out to be a witch, that's just one of the mistakes you make in life that can be VERY EXPENSIVE.
I am not saying I don't feel sorry for the man. I just.. find it a bit creepy that he'd so readily abandon a child who considers him to be dad. You are probably right, esp. with the legal business though.
