I am sorry dude, but that is not how things work. If she refuses to let him part of his son's/daughter's life, there are many things he can do and one of those is go to court. Same way a woman goes to court to get a guy to pay for child support, a guy can go to court to demand "Visitation and custody rights". If that is your problem, I'm with you, but we are talking here about a very different elephant. We are talking about the moment that girl tells you she is pregnant and her decision. What happens after the birth of a baby is a totally different subject.

You still didn't answer my question. What if the girl is your sister or daughter?

First of all, courts will be of virtually no help. Right now 80% of cases give the mother full custody. Visitation is usually at most everyother weekend and perhaps one night a week. The other 20% are joint custody and full custody by the father. Courts do not follow or enforce visitation, but they vigorously follow and enforce child support payments.

All this knowing that children are at the highest risk of being murdered or abused by their mothers or another woman , and at their safest when with the biological fathers. The number one relationship to a murdered child under 5 is the biological mother.

Fathers are shafted in this country, and at the same time shackled to support payments which are many times abouve what they can afford to pay, and are JAILED for INABILITY to pay. This is actually debtors prison, and is currently illegal accourding to the US constitution, but the family courts are not held to the same law as the other courts.

If I had a daughter, I would expect her to have choices, and I would expect her boyfriend to have those same choices.

Turn it around. If this was your son, would you sit by idly while a woman played his life like a puppet on a string?
