I am not sure if many are aware of this term, but it’s used when a women states that a particular man is her child's father and he is ordered to pay child support, even though Court ordered Blood DNA and Saliva test proves he is not the father. Children deserve to know their biological father especially for their medical heritage and inheritance rights.
As a society, we can't just say any man will do as dad, which is what we are saying when we nonchalantly name a 'legal father' by default or otherwise. This devalues fathers and fatherhood. We use DNA to convict and clear alleged criminals. However, the family courts and women are using it to convict innocent men to pay support and the women can still collect from the bio. father. what are we doing for the interest of the child?
