Who is the dad?

Although this particular blog is suppose to be about divorce fathers and their issues, I write another blog (http://whosmybabysdaddy.blogspot.com/) whose subject is entwined with this subject. The question, "Who is the baby's daddy?" is a BIG one with several ramifications. It parallels this one because it is about establishing right as well as responsibilities. It is about providing a child with the opportunity to know and experience their respective cultures and traditions. I tend to be serious about these subjects because I was a divorced father and had to deal with the issues that go along with that but I think that men who are not certain they are the father have the same types of issues and the same feeling of powerlessness. I believe that paternity should be established at birth and this way everybody knows going in what are the rights and responsibilities. It is my hope that the treatment of these men will begin to push the courts in a direction that more fairly distributes the rights and responsibilities of the fathers.

Please let me know what you think. This is a hard subject.

Talk to you soon!
