Is everyone suggesting that, although he is the biological father, that he can not sign paternity papers - or that he has not already done so? The fact that his name was Not on the birth certificate does not negate the fact that he Could have it added. If that is the case, the child's guardian would most likely not be notified and quite possibly, the mother would not either.

what in the HELL are you babbling about?? are you insinuating that this person could just willy nilly waltz in and have his name added to a child's birth certificate? or that he could establish paternity without anyone being notified????

are you serious???

do you even know how many things are wrong with that idea???

If he didn't sign them at the hospital (which requires the mother's consent) then the only way that he could be legally established as the child's father, would be via a court case and DNA test, where all parties, including the mother and legal guardian, would have to be served.

So no, he certainly cannot "sign paternity papers" and he certainly cannot do anything without anyone's knowledge.

Please be careful about what you post.
