Child Support and Fatherhood

Dittohd writes "The John Walsh Show, a talk show on during the day, did the entire show today (7/15/2003) on fathers forced into fathering children of other men after the wife cheats and doesn't tell the husband. Here's a link to the website giving details of the show. One guy didn't find out until after the divorce because of one of his children's medical problems, that 3 of his 4 children weren't his. If it weren't for that, he still wouldn't know the truth. Another guy didn't find out until after his wife died. A year later, the biological father who had had an affair with the wife, claimed that he was the child's biological father and sought full custody of the child. Naturally, the wife and John Walsh, in the first case, were more on the side of the man sucking it up and continuing to father the children and pay child support ($1100 per month!) for the SAKE OF THE CHILDREN. Don't you get sick of that "for the sake of the children" crap being used whenever it's convenient?"
