So where do you draw the line. If the child is an infant and isn't really bonded to the duped dad,is he still liable for 18 years of support? Do you make age 1 the cut off or 9 months?

It would probably have to be a finding of fact by the court, but I'd say it would be somewhere around 1 year of age and 2 years of age.

And how do you think this will affect the child when he is 15 and learns not only that his mom committed adultery, but that this man he's been calling Dad isn't really his father?

You can think all you want that the kid will be happy, but he'll blame them both for lying to him all those years.

Does this only apply if he was a "good" Dad? what if he was abusive, or just didn't like kids. aloof? distant?

how many stipulations would we have to put on this disclaimer ?
