Courts are messed up as is our society. Even, apparently, conservatives.
He has no more rights than a dog and being told, in however manner, was a courtesy.
“A rare victory for common sense.”
Why does he have any right.
He is not married to her.
He is not even with her.
He is nothing.
If someone posted a message on face book meant for me, I wouldn’t get it either. I don’t even read text messages. If someone wants to tell me something, they can use the same phone they are texting with to call me.
I hope and pray he didn’t take the baby away from its true adoptive parents.
Men should keep their sperm to themselves, unless they’ve got plans for the child they might create.
Sorry, I usually agree with you but in this case I agree with the dissenting judges. He was informed.
And what is he planing on doing now?
Take the child and raise her?
She is two and has been in a settled home since birth.
I would be against taking the child away from her parents at this point.
I think it is a very sad yet serious situation for the little boy. People should be more responsible in these relationships and this is one reason being why. It’s a blessing the woman carried the baby. I don’t know what to say, hopefully they will allow the child to stay with the adoptive mom and dad because it would be very hard on the child now. I really feel for the father in some points though, I hope all adults put the child’s happiness and well being first. I have to say, this dad is not fully excused here himself for being in a relationship casually so, I don’t know if I am at a point to just say he has a blanket right to get the little boy in his custody. It’s clear the father and mother didn’t have a good trust in one another from the start.
Laz. I’m pregnant.
Fact of the matter is, more than any Obama or Democrat leftist can dream of, these type of men who will impregnate a woman and leave her before he even knows if she is pregnant have caused the harm to our society we experience today.
Ironically, if the whore of a mother had aborted, the situation would not be as complicated. Now, the man whore must battle with the adopters.
I would think that the court would require an acknowledgement from the father that he was aware of the child and was willing to waive his rights to custody.
I mean, what did this woman do, just state she had told him? Print out the facebook message?
None of that makes sense to me.
“I wonder if the court would have ruled the same way if Baby Mama had been trying to get child support?”
Good question! Government agencies would have done whatever it takes to track the quy down, and be sure he got the “message”. Why didn’t the courts insist on some proof of notice to the father, before awarding the child to adoptive parents? This could have been done in several ways: registered mail, process server — even by email or Facebook, if there were a confirming reply.
Fathers have responsibilities for their children — regardless of marital status. If fathers have the responsibility of paying child support; isn’t the flip side of that responsibility some modicum of parental rights?
This makes no sense. In order to adopt biodad has to sign off on the adoption and agree to loss of parental rights. The courts insist.
