[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The baby deserves two parents, even if they aren’t going to stay married.

The woman is only 1/3 of the equation. The needs of the newborn child are the most important part of this decision.

Where did you see that “they” (who is they?) are working on no bank account should be owned by a woman? Link, source?

What does that have to do with the timing for divorce? Let the parents decide if they want to do automatic or paternity test. Dad can give his paternity sample with the divorce papers. There is not real need for this law in this day and age. Also, many states simply allow the father to sign an acknowledgement form, which also can be filed with the divorce papers. There are many less draconian ways to address this same issue.[/quote]

Then change the law but don't state this is some new perverse way that republicans are forcing women, and only women, to stay married.  Because that is a flat out lie.  Mis/dis information in your parlance if you will.  [/quote]
Yet here is the forced birther state forcing women and men to stay married based on a biological condition experienced exclusively by women. It’s almost as if the famously misogynistic party is doing more of the same. [/quote]

Numerous other people have pointed out that deep blue states have laws, that in effect, do the exact same thing as Missouri. California is another one

“Yes, you can initiate the divorce process, even if you or your spouse are pregnant. However, [b]the court will not finalize the divorce until after the child's birth.[/b] This delay is primarily due to issues surrounding paternity and potential confusion that could arise.”
