If a guy serves his ex with papers for paternity testing and she then files for child support in state of Pennsylvania?

He claims to want to see his son and has always admitted that it is his child. He even showed up with his overbearing mom (who I think pushed him to file in the first place), uninvited, at the hospital to see him when he was born, but was told to leave. So there has been no contact since the child was born and the father's name is not on the birth certificate, but lawyer said if he signed AOP (acknowledgement of paternity) paper at that hearing that he would legally be recognized as the child's father... Instead he did not sign it and dna testing was ordered.

Does this seem logical considering he was the one who initiated legal proceedings in the first place? Do you think he just trying to avoid paying now? It doesn't make sense that he would go for paternity in order to gain visitation rights and then not acknowledge it when given the chance.

Fear vs. Logic It sounds like the father of the baby isn't acting in a highly rational manner - initiating legal proceedings when he had to have known that part of those proceedings would have most logically resulted in an order for child support. The welfare system is highly overburdened, which means that the court is going to try to get child support payments established when and where possible. It also sounds like the father loves the baby, probably still cares deeply for the baby's mother, all regardless of her having left him off the birth certificate.

If he's the baby's father, he's the baby's father and should be acknowledged as such, regardless of his various addictions. Loads and loads of people have addictions today, they're just not socially stigmatized like alcohol and drugs. But addictions abound, some to television soap operas, some take the form of participating in Askville or other discussion boards hours on end.

Some addictions are more socially acceptable than others, but if he's the baby's father, then the's the father. Period. He may have had a change of heart, though, since initiating legal proceedings.

Bringing a new life into the world is a sobering thing to do, even if he hasn't had any contact with the baby. Just the thought of that being with him daily is enough to rock his world. He may be realizing that he's in no shape, at least not right now, to take care of his own needs, much less the continuous and ever-growing needs of a baby, and so he may have changed his mind about pursuing visitation rights and being responsible to pay child support.

He may be hoping now, against hope, that the baby really isn't his so that his life will not have to be inexorably changed. He's afraid.

One or both parents were trying to have it both ways. No one gets to have it both ways, however. Even God doesn't get to have it both ways.

The only question is what each wants, but that is a thing that I doubt either one really knows anyway. God knows; I wonder if He'll say.

I hope if the DNA test shows he is the father that he then SUE the mother for her not allowing him access to the child, and that she knew it was his child and prevented him from having contact. Maybe he will even go after her for custody of the child and make the witch pay him to give the child a good loving home. She seems to be the type that likes to play games and work the system to get what she wants, and often those are the same unfaithful ones that sleep with anything that will have her, thus then the child might not be his.

I wonder if she has tried this on other men trying to get them to pay support instead of him, and worked her way down the list starting with the richest first to get all the $$ she can out of them! .

If the mother is that big of a witch, I think he should require a DNA test. As she on purpose left his name of the BC and now only seems to want him to be the father so she can get some $$ out of it. Seems to me that she is a poor example of a parent.

2 1. The father was an abusive alcoholic/drug addict and that's why his name was left off. 2.

The mother never bothered with child support for months until he went for paternity and that's what her lawyer advised that she do. 3. They were staying together and there's not really a question that he is the father.

4. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

For Judge Hatchett... How can my daughter get a paternity test done for child to get child support.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
