I’d go to jail, or disappear before a single penny went to this nonsense.
‘Even if you had a child who really was yours, and needed you at home, providing emotional and financial support?’
Different scenario completely.
I’ll t..y...p...e....s...l...o...w...e...r.
I wouldn’t pay child support for a child thats not mine. Period. Under any circumstances, despite any muttering from any court, or politician.

The trouble is, they haul you off to prison if you don’t either pay or disappear. You can be living happily with your own wife and child, or with an elderly parent you’re caring for, and along comes a court giving you a choice of going to prison or disappearing if you don’t start forking over money to your ex-wife’s child by some other guy.
