"We don't want to illegitimize a whole class of children, and we don't want to impoverish a whole class of children," Stowe said. "We have to look at the greater good." Here is a solution...Why doesn't the mother go after the REAL FATHER for money?

Why doesn't the mother go after the REAL FATHER for money?

For the same reason that the mother committed the Fraud in the first place. THE REAL FATHER HAS NO MONEY.

It's like the old joke - "why to crooks rob banks? Because that is where the money is!"

Many women, bless them, have a thing for low-life bad boys who are usually good in the sack, but not good husband or parent material. These women usually have multiple concurrent sexual partners anyway, and they simply choose the man with the most cash to list on the Birth Certificate as father.

They could care less about the parental rights of the NATURAL father, they only care to get paid.

They go for who has a job and money.

Typical socialism--from those to whom more is given, more is expected.....the greatest good for the grestest number....

Notice the transfer of responsibility from those who did the deed to create another set of victims. Thank heavens for DNA testing.

Often, with these women, the biological father is not the best choice for Father responsibilities. The real father is probably great eye candy and great in the sack but he is also probably a dead beat. The selected father wears glasses, has a bit of pot belly, dresses geeky, is responsible and makes $200k/yr.
