You are NOT the father!

Denise, do you realize the impact of what you’re suggesting? Bedlam in maternity wards and delivery rooms…..

Denise

“All babies should be DNA tested at birth and their putative fathers informed of the results.”

Why not just make it a felony for a woman to claim that some man is the father of her child if the DNA evidence says otherwise, in other words, place the burden of proof on her?

And, while we’re at it, make if a felony for a married woman to have a child if that child isn’t the husbands, unless she can prove that the husband had agreed to it at the time of conception.

The phrase “snowball’s chance in Hell” comes to mind, for any of these proposals. Three different American Bar Association Paternity and Family Matters committee chairs (all of whom just happen to be women) have responded to this situation by telling men to just put up with it.

GK,
Being a paternity fraud victim myself, I certainly understand the mayhem DNA could cause at birth, however I also understand the complete devastation paternity fraud causes for the victim and the child.

Ok so a mother may feel betrayed because of mandatory DNA at birth truly questioning her integrity, this feeling can be surpassed very quickly in realization it is for the best interest of her child, what mother would not wont her child to know there true genetic history for future medical reasoning.

Lets use just a little common sense, do you really believe a mother could not passably know the chance could exist if she had multiple partners, miscounting days is a cop out. If a woman has to calculate the days of her cycle to determine the parentage of her child, she is already holding doubts; to claim one man is the absolute father would be an incorrect fact.

For 16+ years, I paid child support on a child that was proven not to be mine with DNA. The kicker was the child was living with both of his biological parents for a sixteen-year period, and for the last 5 years of the court order, I was ordered to pay his biological father child support directly while he maintained physical custody. GK, I ask you, not to battle the subject, but what do I tell my biological children whom this has effected in so many ways.

Quite frankly, GKs intentions seem to be to be more complex than GK would like us to think. The purported concern for the safety of maternity wards and delivery rooms is absurd given that the simplest solution to that concern is also the most obvious. Don’t deliver the news there.

DNA tests take time, if the mother has left the maternity ward during that period, there is no possibility of trouble in the maternity ward. The suggestion that DNA tests can be completed while the couple is still in the delivery room is so far beyond ridiculous as to unmask GKs true agenda.

To preserve the right of women to deceive their spouse about the paternity of “their” child.

Every woman enjoys total confidence about her own parental status. It is a selfish and unloving act to deny this confidence to a man that she claims to love. A DNA test really ought to be considered a “birth gift” from a mother to her childs father rather than a legal obligation. The right of a putative father to have a DNA test ought to be legally and socially inviolate.

This is not precisely paternity fraud on the mothers’ parts as fraud requires intent

Often the intent is to declare the man that makes the most money the father.

Maury often shows a great deal of misandry on these “whose the father” shows. He often blasts men for not standing up to their responsilbity to be the father of some woman’s child but I never have heard him say anything negative about the mother who does not know who the baby’s father is.

In one case, they were testing possible father number 14 or 15 and the results…you are NOT the father. So on to possible father number 16 on up. Still Maury blasted the man for not stepping up to the plate although personally I believe the use of a term that got Imus in trouble may well have applied if this woman already went through 15 possiblites and still did not pin the tail on the right man

Bob, it is a felony in Mich. to commit adultry but so far, I am sure they have only tried to inforce it for one side of the marriage. I am sure you can guess which side.

“All babies should be DNA tested at birth and their putative fathers informed of the results.”

I have been calling for this for years. It is good to see a woman calling for it too, Denise. I do not know a man who would find anything to object to in DNA testing babies.

So where do the objections come from? Why, women of course. Women in general, feminists and maginas.

And why?

To keep the chance to commit fraud.

(Denise) Maury is almost always kind to mothers who come on his program. He can also be comforting to men as well. A woman came on to say that she wasn’t sure who the father was and her (I think) boyfriend started blaming himself and Maury said, “Don’t beat yourself up about it. She’s the one who did it.”

(Denise) There is one lady who has tested 18 men to try to find out who the biological father of her baby daughter is. The first man tested was her husband. The daughter is better off than many children because she has an active father-figure in her life as the husband has stayed married to the woman through her search for the biological father and is acting as daddy to the girl.
The woman had gone to a party in which she became inebriated and took on all the men at the party. Among those tested were a group of four men who called the program because they all believed that one of them could be the child’s father. At least one of them said he had been at the party that had gotten wild.
Maury lauded them, saying, “These are all stand-up guys.”
Unfortunately, the DNA was negative on all of them.

C’mon, y’all know that the Maury Show & all those guests on it are fake, right?
