Default Fiance Found Out He's Not The Father
Okay, so My fiance, Just found out after 5 years that his daughter is not his. She recently came to visit us in Georgia and something that he questioned became more evident when he saw her. He said alright i want to do a test. So he did and we found out when we went to take his daughter back to Puerto Rico. He spoke to the mother and she said " okay, you dont have to pay anymore but i want you to be the father still"
But unfortunately he does not want any responsiblity to the child. He wants the girl to know her real father whoever he is. THe problem i think he is facing is, the little girl legally has his last name, and he signed the birth certificate. ( him and the mother were never married ). He doesn't want her to have his name. and he doesn't want to pay.

He doesn't want to live a lie he says. He sees his child about once a year.

The father of the mother is now calling,mad and they want another test. Which is fine( even though ours was accurate 100%) . But how can he protect himself from her demanding money( can she demand moneY) he doesn't pay legal child support he just gives her between 600-1000 every month. If everything were to go smoothly is it possible to remove his last name?

This is very delicate and furusterating. The victim here is the child and the father. I just don't feel its right that he be obligated to pay for something that isn't his, if the mother acknowleges the fact that he isn't the father, if the test proves it also.

hes knows it would be easier to go on like nothing happened, but he just doesn't want to live like that. he says he loves the child but it changes everything and he doesn't want to live a lie or be responsible anymore financially.



she lives in puerto rico he lives in georgia.

Default Re: Fiance Found Out He's Not The Father
The child was born where? Any prior custody or support order was entered where?
