Better to Get a Test Done Before/at Birth Than Get Stuck Financially Supporting a Child Who Isn’t Yours Because You Signed the Birth Certificate

Thats fine, then change the laws so men arent on the hook for CS if DNA testing comes back that they're not the biological father no matter how much time has passed.

Can't have it both ways, cant vilify men for getting a DNA test soon after birth, but also tell me the DNA test doesnt change CS obligations if it wasnt done soon enough.

If women don't want to be offended by their husbands taking DNA test maybe they should be the ones coming up with the idea. It is in the interest of all non-cheating women to have their kids DNA tested for paternity. It is in the interest of all children to be tested (genetic diseases etc.).

I mean, it is an indicator of a lack of trust. But blind trust is how you walk into the abyss.

Trust but verify is wisdom for a reason.

If they are so concerned about trust issue, then they shouldn't be so scared that men have paternity tests. Nothing to hide, right?

Also, why aren't those women doing anything to solve the root of it, ie. child support to be paid even if the child's not his?

That's exactly what a cheater would say...these DNA tests should be mandatory at birth.

Why do you fasten your seatbelt when your husband is at the steerwheel? Get out and never come back with this type of trust level!

So, is this woman admitting that in her case the child probably isn't his?

i'm(sic) leaving with my child.

Otherwise, ya know, it's our child, and she has no right to exclude him.

The word narcissist gets overused but the modern man can't even question.
