Its simple really - as a guy - you shouldn't stick it in something you aren't willing to at least deal with for the next 18 years (or life) - and be willing to accept what ever crap you are given.

In so far as its a womans right to choose - its also her responsibility to tell the father in advance. If the father is not named on the birth certirficate - then he should not be heald responsible. Don't run off, have a baby then show up 3, 4 years later expecting to collect child support and then limit the mans contact with the child.

While the dead-beat dad problem warrents strict laws to protect the mother & child and to help with the financial and social burden of raising a child - there is more of a need to create changes in those laws that create and protect the fathers rights as well. And beyond that - the child's rights. Far to often childreen in these situations are used as pawns to manipulate the other parent.

So again - men, boys, lads... if your willing to carry the baggage - dont take the trip!
