Duped Dads Fight Back

This is a little more serious than what's usually out here...I found an article on Time Magazine Online regarding fathers who after they get a divorce from their wives, find out that they are not the baby's daddy.  Sometimes this is when the child is 6 or 7 or even 30.  Do they still have to pay child support?  Current laws, yes.  But there are several states looking into other solutions.

I'm not sure how I feel about it.  I understand the rights of the man who has been duped.  But I also feel sorry for the child.  Can you image if you were 7 years old, and all of a sudden the man you called "daddy" wanted nothing to do with you anymore.  (I know this happens in a lot of cases with the biological father - fortunately, this idea is inconcievable to me). And what about the mother - how does she get off being a poopy head? 

Anyway, here's the full article

I'm curious to know what other blog cadreans think.  (BTW - what is the correct term for people who use blog cadre?)
