shocked, a lot of "what if's" in your statement. What you assume is that everything
stays in "harmony" after the baby's birth, and you know that can quite well change with circumstances. Again, the courts could care less about anyone involved other than the welfare of that baby. So if the paternal ******* lives up to his "billing" ... all is good. If the couple remain happy and together, all is good. If the biological ******* stays away and out of the family's lives, all is good ... etc, etc.
However IF these things don't work as planned, again, the court simply wants that baby to be cared for. The mere fact that the baby is biracial simply clues the courts that they have another source to tap ... that's all. But guys got to realize, when you create LIFE, there is no guarantee you'll walk away with no responsibility.
I'll put this in a different scenario, using my job. In insurance, insurance agents are required to carry a personal liability type insurance called Errors & Omissions (E&O), just in case they misrepresent a insurance benefit that the insurance company isn't legally liable for. Now here's the catch to that ... as long as those insurance contracts are in existence, I need to carry that E&O coverange, because I'll
always be responsible for the misrepresentation of those insurance contracts. Even if it is 10-15-20 years down the road, I have to carry E&O just to be safe that my misrepresentations will be covered to the good of the person who purchased those contracts.
Consider the sperm fertilizing the woman's egg as the man's Liability for as long as the courts consider that baby a minor.
