Paternity: She Lied--You Pay
"Kenneth S." wrote in message news:2Ff4i.10186$kf1.2856@trnddc01... "John Meyer" wrote in message . .. Gini wrote: Caution--Paternity testing/contesting is time-limited. (PDF File 15 pgs) http://www.floridasupremecourt.org/d.../sc05-2346.pdf Didn't they find the same earlier when they basically blamed the man for being a twerp who trusted his wife. The state of the law on this issue -- like the state of the law on post-conception reproductive choice -- is a good litmus test, in my view. What the litmus test reveals is the continuing grotesque distortion of U.S. law in favor of women and against men. With very few exceptions, courts in all states in the U.S. say that a man cannot use the results of a DNA test to end his responsibility to pay a woman "child support." Par for the course when it comes to the government people. This is no different than their "we always win and you always lose" income tax policy. If you show a profit, you lose by having to pay them money; they win. If you show a loss, you lose and they win by not sharing in your loss. This is not unlike retracting your bet at a casino after the cards turn up against you. What a deal! By contrast, however, a woman can use a DNA test to force a man to pay her the money. A new technology (DNA testing) came along, and it was quickly adopted to defend the interests of women. There has been great reluctance to see this technology used to defend the interests of men. Sometimes, supporters of the status quo (see for example the statement on the website of the Children's Rights Council, http://www.gocrc.com/ ) claim that they are concerned with the interests of the child, and they do not want to end a relationship between a child and the man that he or she has known as father. However, this is nonsense. Forcing a man to pay "child support" to a woman who has conceived the child by a relationship (very possibly adulterous) with another man provides no guarantee that the man will maintain a relationship with the child. All it does -- and all it is intended to do -- is force the man to pay money to the woman. |

Remember some of the DNA stuff from the OJ trial? That is an extremely remote possibility. Unless you have an identical twin, the odds of getting a match are something like 10 billion to one. The entire world population is only 6 billion. Further, DNA testing can easily determine if you or a family member fathered a child. Hell, they do it all the time on the Springer wannabe shows. Oh, I know. But I do vaguely remember the issue coming up at the OJ trial. |
