I believe that every case is unique, but the mother of a child shouldn't be so determined to rid her life of the father of the child by having his name removed from a birth certificate. Complete selfishness IMNSHO! The child was born to the natural parents, the birth mother and the birth father, and our legal system seems to usurp these documented facts from the child without regard for the "future adult's" feelings or desire. Who's thinking about the child's right to have documented, and know, who their natural parents are, especially after the child reaches the age of majority?

Girl - If you have no intensions of ever seeing,hearing or talking to him again and you do NOT want child support from him EVER, then don't put his name down, but dont ever lie to your child either. I wish I would have left the "sperm donor" off my childs b/c, it would have been better for everyone. Either way you need to think of all sides..what about his family? Think about it, it's easy to add but hard to take a name off.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
