How does the law handle non-married child support when....

Postby embattled » Tue May 08, 2012 10:14 am

The woman who's on the pill gets pregnant, the man does not want to keep the child, but she does. Agencies can still force him to pay, right?

So, he has no say about the child he fathered, but he has all the responsibilities of being a father against his will.

Is that the case? (Not that this is an issue for me, but I wonder...)

What this means is, women have the right to choose but men don't.

Actually, what it means is that a man assumes a certain amount of risk when he sticks his pecker in a woman, which he is certainly free not to do.

As does the woman when she receives said pecker.

True, though I'd say that given the circumstances the risk assumed are no where near equal.

Good news! If you are non-married you don't pay any child support. Just click your heels three times and say "I really thought she was on birth control". It's that simple. :wink:
