I'm not necessarily against the idea of underage sex, but having a child at only 16 is stupid beyond any reason. She proved through that act alone she is not mature. Underage pregnancy is never a good idea. She needs the guidance of someone more rational than herself, like her father.
If your description is accurate, the guy does seem like your average loser. Nail him to the wall whether your daughter likes it or not. Sometimes you have to be tough to be kind. He needs to pay money towards his child, which it does not sound like he will do willingly. Maybe you should have a talk with the guy and let him know where his responsibilities lie.
Whatever you decide to do, don't let this alone. Don't let your daughter's child suffer because of her foolish choices.
