I prefer an all-or-nothing approach. If the man does not want to undertake any financial responsibility for the child, then he should not have any paternal rights.

Hmm. I thought that was what I was saying. I just don't think he should legally be made to do so. That just causes resentment and will hurt the child. However if he does so from the goodness of his heart, then maybe he and the children will heal.

"I prefer an all-or-nothing approach. If the man does not want to undertake any financial responsibility for the child, then he should not have any paternal rights."What about this? Make support payments at say $4-5 per hour of custody in his care? Would be a lot better than what many men get now. No visitation rights but still have to pay child support.
