I agree that the father needs to know. But, requiring these women to place an ad in the newspaper is not the right way to go. Why not just tell the woman that she is responsible to find the true biological father whatever way she can. Let her decide how to do it. Maybe the fathers should take some responsibility here, too. That is, if a man has a one-night stand, maybe he should find out the woman's real name and keep in touch with her if he doesn't want his offspring raised by strangers.

I'm with grlfrnd. We keep talking about all of these rights. The right to an abortion, the right to privacy, the right to banish the father from the child yet still collect child support.
IMO she has the right to keep her legs closed. If not she has the right to have the foggiest idea of who the hell she was mating (like a stray dog) with.
If she's shamed, tough shit.
