Sadly there exists the other possibility. Mom and husband try to "work it out" but decide later that it just isn't happening. Husband then decides he isn't so accepting of the child after all and leaves never to see or speak to the child again. Either way you look at is, this poor kid is stuck in a crummy situation and all the adults here can concern themselves with is money. All of these people need to be kicked in the seats of their pants

Oh if only!I'll see your kick and raise you three contempt filings and a restraining order?
On a more serious note - we only ever have the OP's side of things (well...there are some notable exceptions but they're not too common). Given the darling sentiment he's shown here...yeah, he needs to stay as far away from that poor child as is humanly possible.
Now I think about it, maybe the husband can rid himself of the shameless hussy and have her pay child support while he's the custodial parent.
