Child support question?

To all the people that say things like- You don't want him to be in your life but you want his money-

Go f*ck yourselves.

I'm sure once you turn 65 you'll want money from the government, but in the meantime you're gonna complain about them constantly.

Hypocrites.

Child support is neccesary, and you all don't know the situation. How do you know he wasn't abusing her or something? Get off her back.

I think you just take it to court sweetie, your doctor actually can answer questions like that. You could be getting CS from him starting now actually, because you're pregnant with his baby. So if you need money for doctor appointments, just find a good lawyer and they'll help you out with getting started on it.

In my state, you can't just put the guy on the birth certificate unless he consents and signs. But you better believe you can still get child support from him, LoL.

He'll have to do a DNA test, since I doubt he'll just sign the certificate or anything else that says he's the father, since he's already being an a$$. Then the court makes him pay. Unfortunately, that also gives him visitation rights unless you have very, very good reasons why he shouldn't. Good luck!

No his name doesn't have to be on the birth certificate but when you go for child support they would order a DNA test because his name isn't down and if you just wanted to avoid all that then just put him down, however remember he can at anytime ask for a DNA test anyways. So I would put him on the certificate and get the DNA test too so you won't have to deal with it later on in life, because he wouldn't be able to question if its his child. Everything will be documented. I wish you the best of luck and congrats on the baby....

the father of my oldest two is not on the birth certificate of either child. He still pays child support for both. All they did was send him some papers and if he contested then he had to go to court for it and have a DNA test, but he didn't contest it and sent the papers back signed.

No, you do not need to put his name on the birth cert. but when you go for child support they will do a DNA test on him and the baby to make sure he is the father. Go after his a**. If he wants nothing to do with you thats fine but he IS going to help with that baby he created !!!!!

Good Luck

yes and sometimes DNA testing depends on the state. He may not be in the picture now but who's to say he won't be after the baby is born. You may not want his name on the certificate but it doesn't change the fact he is the babies father. Best suggestion...stay civil and never bad mouth him to your child even if you happen to hate his guts. If he wants nothing to do with the child then i suggest having him sign his rights away. But I would put his name down...the baby has a right to know who there father is even if they personaly don't know them.

Well in order to get child support... a court will order a DNA test if he contests that he is the father. In most cases if you are going through a child support agency they assist in putting the father on the birth certificate.

You need to remember that your baby has a father. Even if you are not interested in him, your baby deserves to have him listed there. You need to think of how your baby will feel with a blank spot where his/her daddy belongs. You are not gonna punish the dad, but your gonna punish the baby.

First of all it would be best to talk to the guy and tell him you want child support. Then proceed from there by talking to an attorney.

I think this depends on the state you live in. I would go to your local human services agency and talk to them about the situation. They would be able to advise you on the proper way to do things. Even if he does not want anything to do with the baby, he is still responsible for supporting it.

well if he isnt on the birth certificate you will need a DNA test or him to sign something legal saying he is the father. Good luck with all that.
