Capitol Hill Blue Forums Misc. Topics History Roundtable Whose kid is it, anyway?

Pondering, I had no idea. Oddly, that’s one of the scenarios I sketched out in a post I think I deleted, and one of the original questions I intended for this thread. It looks to me as though the court used a sort of “common-law” fatherhood idea.

Frankly, my own personal reaction is, what kind of arsehole would attempt to abandon a child in his family simply due to genetics. Leave the wife, maybe, but divorce the child??

Rick - the story you bring to light astonishes me, and to a large extent sickens me. There is some twisted stuff going on here. I’m surprised it ever got to court the first place.
