i think rulings that lean toward pressing hard on legal fathers or not also depends ALOT on the state you're living in. while Mooseman has experienced the courts' lack of enforcement, others have experienced where the courts are too harsh on the legal fathers.
i know a guy who is having a kid with his gf but now she doesn't want anything to do with the guy, yet he has been devoted to the relationship and the developing baby the whole time. he's now going to hafta fight for custody rights, and they are trying to really rob him as far as the child support goes.
texas seems to be a state where they're not consistent from one case to another....
but as far as that sperm donating case, i think he should hafta pay at least something because he donated non-annonymously to a woman he had already had relations with, and he never got it in writing that he would be duty-free. *shrug* but still that woman shouldn't have done what she did.
