Its Fathers Day but do these New York men have reason to celebrate?
The Post spent the past few weeks cruising shotgun in a mobile DNA-testing truck helping doubtful dads find proof of their progeny.
Health Street, the testing company, has two 27-foot Winnebagos Whos Your Daddy? emblazoned on either side that rumble through the city seven days a week offering a range of services, including drug and heritage testing.

BTW, every one of these cases involve Amish folks. Really, you have to go to the website and read the whole article. It just defies belief.

Actually each of the stories were pretty touching in their own ways. However, I suspect there were plenty of stories that were omitted that were not quite as touching.

These dads are all outliers. I was thinking, “What a strange business model to operate in a hood where fathers are purposely MIA. Where’s the customer base, especially at $350 per test?”
Maybe they are “waiving” the fee for eligible low-income types (i.e. the entire target group) because it’s a front for law enforcement trolling for DNA samples.

$350 is cheap to get out of child support. I am sure they find plenty of business who can scrape up that much.

Cuckolded husbands unknowingly raising other men's children aren't endemic to any specific group - Amish, white, or black, the odds are there are thousands of men in the US right now unwittingly raising some other guy's kid while the wife knows or at least suspects. And plenty of horror stories out there about men finding out that the kids they've spent years and thousands of dollars supporting aren't really theirs - and then the courts will tell them they need to go on supporting them until they're 18.

That makes sense. I guess I was thinking of the total pool of potential customers - that most in the neighborhood wouldn't be paying it anyway (being unknown/unnamed baby daddies) so there would be no incentive to want to know about paternity.
The article should have been entitled, "Mobile DNA-testing truck provides New York City child-support payers with paternity truth".

Yeah, we’re already paying for all the products of their irresponsible behavior anyway.

I’m told how little money single mothers have to raise their families with. Except that I never hear about collection from the so-called dead beat dads.
Here in Texas I have to provide my social security card to the DPS office to obtain a driver’s license so that I can “prove” I don’t owe back child support even though I have no children, no ex-spouses, etc and there has been no claim against me.
How do all of the supposedly dead beat dads slip through the cracks since I have to prove I’m NOT GUILTY before I can obtain basic daily used identity papers?
How many baby daddies can these mothers typically collect from?
Frankly it’s not my problem if they don’t want to go “through the hassle” of making them pay up. But the welfare state does not owe them a dime extra to make up for the shortfall.
The law hassles me so it should definitely be shaking the branches of some other family trees.
