[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All these "let it go" folks are ridiculous.

I love the "do you need the money?" especially.

I've BTDT. No matter what - you need the financial support. Maybe not immediately but no one can argue that a not having to worry about college is a bad thing. I didn't "need" any financial support and out of sheer spite I didn't go to court and I regret it.

No, we didn't suffer. But the fact that I let an adult man shirk his responsibilities - even just financially - bothers me to this day. I should have asked and received whatever my child was entitled to - and bank if for child if not "needed".

Also - FYI child support is separate from visitation/custody - meaning you can take him to court for child support and establish that you are the primary custodian but unless he presses for visitation, it's not addressed. Basically - if he doesn't want to be involved then let him not be involved but yes, make sure that he provides the finances required whether that's in support or medical insurance.[/quote]
What does  college have to do with it? A paternity test won't force him to contribute to tuition, but it will make sure his income is counted in the equation whether he contributes or not, possibly screwing you out of financial aid. 
Some men are of such questionable character and judgment I'd hesitate to let them walk my dog let alone have visitation or 50% custody of my child. A man who denies paternity and tries to call the mother's morals in to question strikes me as that type of man.[/quote]
