On Oct. 3, attorney Mark McMillan filed a petition on behalf of the Department of Children and Families seeking a ruling that Marotta is the father of Schreiner’s child and owes a duty to support her. It said the department provided cash assistance totaling $189 for the girl for July through September 2012 and had paid medical expenses totaling $5,884.96.

Um, so this goes on with every mother and their sperm donors? No matter the method of how the donation is planted? Welfare, EBT, WIC, Section-8,SCHIP etc. spending is extremely low in this country because the Dept of Children and Families go after all the absentee fathers?

believe you me, if the state spends one thin dime on a kid, they are looking for the fathers. Usually when the mom won’t cough up the name it is because it is a case of incest. And yeah, once the dad is id’d, he is paying back the state, that is, if he has any kind of a job.
