[quote=Anonymous]I'm single (never married) and recently found out that a ONS from a while back in the town I went college in had a child some time ago.  The mother lives a few hours away from here in southern VA and to be honest I don't really remember her although I suppose that doesn't really matter at this point.  It's pretty obvious that I messed up and made a major life mistake so there's no need to pile on about that.  I am very aware of my mistake and I'm not really interested in re-visiting that issue here.

Child support has been resolved through the child support guidelines along with the arrears from when the case was pending.  I have discussed that issue with my lawyer and the guidelines in VA are fairly straightforward so I am fairly knowledgeable about how all that works.  The payment is a lot of money in the abstract but I don't see it affecting me day to day as I live a fairly frugal lifestyle.

I am curious whether there are any family relationship or other issues along that line I should be considering or is simply a matter of paying the child support until the age of majority?  [/quote]
