Well, gee..... perhaps you should have considered that BEFORE having a child with him? You picked him to father your child. If he decides to seek his rights through the courts, you can expect that he will be awarded visitation. You could also seek child support. But you don't get to simply erase him from your child's life - next time choose more wisely.
