Daddy Nobucks: When Involuntary Fathers Are Forced to Foot The Bill
Regarding the controversy of whether it takes one or two to make a baby–
I will grant you that under most circumstances it takes two to establish a pregnancy (with a few exceptions of purloined or misappropriated sperm). However, the courts tend to adhere to a standard of “strict liablity” as regards spreading your little swimmers around. But don’t let anyone pettyfog the idea that it takes two to make a baby – whether the pregnancy results in a baby or does not result in a baby is SOLELY THE DECISION OF ONE, the mother, who can abort despite the father’s wishes or refuse to abort despite the boyfriend’s pleadings.
Between the Scylla of strict liability for sperm and the Charybdis of current family law ripping men out of families they married for and planned for, and the constantly increasing tendency of the government to encroach upon family prerogatives on raising children even in intact families, I can’t see whey any male over twenty-five would still have an intact vas deferens. Once the little swimmers are bottled up – no problem.
Uh . . . no problem that is, except in the case of Tom P. above. Whatever happened to notion of civil disobedience and telling the judge (literally) to cram it when/if ordered to pay child support for a child that’s not yours. Yeah, I know you’ll get locked up for that. But freedom isn’t free, never has been. I’d choose to become an expense to the state in addition to the lost taxes from my no longer earning income rather than participate in their extortion scheme.
Millions for defense – not a penny for tribute!!
