Yeah, a signed condom. She didn't get pregnant on her own.

No. If one could simply sign something like that, there wouldn't be anyone paying child support!

no. you play, you pay. called responsibility. you didn't want a child, you should have taken precautions. too late now. so get off yahoo and go find a job. better get two if you can.


Jane Doe
She didnt get pregnant by herself. If you didnt want a child you SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESPONSIBLE AND USED A CONDOM You better get a second job children are expensive!!!!!!!!!


nana
That is her prerogative! No one can make you get an abortion. and you should be using protection if you don't want to have a child. Take some responsibility!

It does not work that way and there is NOTHING you can sign.

No. When women aren't getting child support they sometimes have to resort to welfare. I think the man should help paying the bills before the taxpayers.

At this time, there is nothing legally you can sign, or do, that will prevent her from coming after you for child support.

Step up and be a man. Your going to be a Dad. Start studying what that means. Be the Best Dad you can be so your child doesn't end up in your situation. Step up and be a Dad. You have legal rights to your child. Your child needs you. Too many young men don't know what being a dad means so they don't bother finding out. Too many babies are born and raised without fathers. You are at bat my friend, you can sit at the plate and start swinging or get a strike out and go to the bench, but your baby is in the stands calling on his/her dad. You are being trusted with a great honor. Failure will lead to suffering, success leads to joy.

if she refuses to get an abortion your screwed, on the other hand when the child gets here hopefully you would grow to love it, it happened to me but she's here now and i love her to death she the sweetest little thing you can love. for her mom she hates me cause i didn't want to continue a relationship with her, don't let a woman use a child for your love

And you think you were screwed before, you are really screwed now. Step up to the plate, it's gonna be a long, long, ball game!

Okay.
First off, the lady wants the baby. Wouldn't that mean she likes you enough to want to keep your child??
Second, shouldn't that mean she wants to be with you??
Third, you're very irresponsible for not taking care of something that is half your fault.
Fourth, if you're not going to stay with the girl who chose to live with the woman who is keeping your child, you should at least help care for it some way.

I, myself, would most definately get an abortion if the father was like you.
She's just a good person.

Nope - when you put Tab A into Slot B you are well aware that a child may result. You are consenting to the potential of becoming a parent.

If you don't want any children - zip it up and only date your right hand because no birth control is 100% except abstaining.

Hi:

Sorry Dude, but you can't get out of this one in the way that you want to. It takes 2 to make a baby and that makes YOU the Father (like it or not).

Now, if you don't want to participate in raising your child with your girlfriend, though I DON'T recommend that, you can bow out. But you absolutely CAN NOT abandon your financial responsibilities to your child.

My advice to you is to be there for your girlfriend AND your child. Who knows? You might make a GREAT DAD! Please find the courage to stay and make it work out. Your child is going to need you as he (or she) grows up. Too many fathers today drop out of their kid's lives and it's a down right tragedy.


thezaylady
How dare she tie you down and rape you just to carry your child!
If it didn't happen that way, the child is the father's financial responsibility.
Termination of Parenthood varies from state to state. If the father of the child really wants to jump ship, he would have to look up the exact laws of how it's done, or if it can.


T
That's the way it should work when you employ a little logic. Unfortunately the law rarely uses logic. The bottom line: she chooses whether she aborts or not and you are stuck with child support if she chooses to have the baby. You do not have any say in the matter one way or the other (if she wanted to abort and you wanted the child, well, her decision counts).
