188. I personally think that he was stupid

Wed Mar 12, 2014, 08:36 PM

not to demand a paternity test prior to having his name put on the birth certificate. But if he is the biological father he has just as much right to bond with the child as the mother. If the mother attempts to freeze him out of the child's life, it will back fire down the road when the child regrets not having a relationship with her Dad.

She presents the father has a bad guy but lets all agree that none of us really know what has taken place in that relationship. It is possible that she is just as much a witch as he is a bad guy. Emotions are running very high and if both sides don't get grip on it, things do not bode well for the child being raised in a loving environment. Both of them need to get over themselves and do what is best for the child and that should be having a chance to have two loving parents even if the parents do not live together. This should never be a tug of war nor a game of one-upsmanship.
