Absolutely get the test done, but hey, if the kid is yours, congratulations. You're a new father! I wasn't planning on having my daughter and couldn't stand living with her mother, but I have to see being a dad is the best part of my life.
Aw, your comment made me smile :) However, we don't know anything about how old OP is, whether he is in another relationship, or his plans in general. We can't assume he could or should take care of the child. But I do agree that if it's possible for him to raise him well, he should. No kid should have to grow up with OP's crazy ex as a single parent.
well... you may end up having to pay for the kid, but at least it will allow you the right to be in the child's life should you so desire to be. another route (again, if you want to take care of the child) would be to petition her for custody. if you can manage to get custody, then you can hit her for child support. also, if you have a way of proving she's an unfit parent, they can make her pay but give her no rights to the child.
It's a shitty situation to be stuck in but just remember it isn't the kids fault. Would you really want your child to be solely raised by your **** of an ex girlfriend? If you don't do right by your kid you're really no better than your ex so at least get some time with him/her even if just weekends/holidays
I would have gotten a DNA test when she got pregnant even she said it was someone else's, you knew at the time you had slept with her and it was possible, why chance missing out on your kid, or having some horrid woman come back and try to squeeze money out of you for no reason. I personally don't think back child support should exist for the time period before the woman files. If she has a court order and you don't pay for three years, sure she should get back support, but if she chooses to file when the kid is two or three, its her loss.
DNA tests in utero are extremely expensive and dangerous for the baby. Besides, SHE left him because she was sure it wasn't his.
I have to agree OP, get a DNA test, and if you are the father take responsibility and get custody of your child. Would you want your child to be raised by someone with no morels. If you don't want to raise your kid then at least be involved in their life and maybe you'll be a good enough influence that they won't screw up their own life. Of course if it's not your child I hope they get their real father or grandparents to raise them. Your ex sounds like a **** that shouldn't raise children.
Don't get a DNA test... That could confirm. When she had the kid, she put someone else's name as the father on the birth certificate. Use that to muddy the water. She is now an unreliable ****. Use her indescretion against her and don't hesitate to get graphic... Her parents will love it.
Yes OP, screw the kid out of any support you could potentially provide, emotional, fiscal, whatever. And all because you couldn't wrap it up when you screwed the child's cheating mom. Really? It's not the kids fault. It didn't ask for this situation, it didn't ask to be born. OP shouldn't duck a paternity test, OP needs to take responsibility for his actions. He needs to get a DNA test, and if the child is his, then he needs to man up, get partial if not full custody, and help take care of the kid. If he helped make the kid then he shares in the responsibility for raising it, even if he just contributes financially.
Totally agree, #71. Why punish the kid? If the kid is OP's, he is just as responsible for creating that life as the mother is.
