Do you legally have to notify partner of child?

its crazy to think she can claim she doesnt known the father putting unknown on the birthday certicate and then tell the child at some point the father is dead. Surely if she ever contacted the CSA they should say they cant help her because the father is unknown. I guess at that point she would just change her story. Orignally CSA was setup to get those parents who didnt want anything to do with there kids or pay anything towards them these days they just go for the easy targets which are normally the people that want access to their kids. Hate sometimes how stupid the system seems to be in this country.
 
a mate of mine is having issues with his ex and kid.

he was allowed some access to him on a weekend then when he did not return him on time she got the police around his house saying that he would not give him back.

he had solicitor letter saying that they will stop him seeing the kid all together if it happens again.

so further on now she has changed her number and moved away.
the lad is a decent guy aswell.

women can be just evil.
 
You have an ethical obligation to tell the father.

So many people these days have an attitude of "it's not my business" ignoring the potential harm this situation can result in.

Exactly, I don't buy this "It's not your business" line, it's ethically and morally wrong that a women can do this, we all have an obligation to the truth.

Sounds like the kind of person that when she needs or wants to, goes after child maintainance costs from him after years of refusing to tell him he ever had a kid.
This is exactly what happened to my uncle.

She turns up at the door with an 8 year old kid. Oh by the way, this is your daughter, I'd like you to pay maintenance please.

Paternity test goes through saying it's his. He was actually pretty happy, couldn't wait to get to know her etc.

Mum then decides, no sorry, you can't see her it would be too upsetting for her after she's been raised by another man for 7 years. Thanks for the maintenance cheques though and we look forward to receiving christmas and birthday presents for her.

How is he even being made to pay? If that happened to me I would be telling her to sling her own hook to be honest.

Because it's not our business? Is you had told someone something and then they went and told the other person on you, would you be happy?

I may hint towards the father that it may be a good idea to maybe call around sometime, but I wouldn't come out with "She has had your child"
 
Just forget about it, if ever the CSA get involved he is gonna be in a world of pain.
They can do whatever they want and i know from experience.

The powers they have are ridiculous, and by the sounds of how she is chances are it might not even be his.
 
Would personally tell him even if it was anonymously somehow. The mother doesn't sound like a very nice person but the kid deserves to know her dad.
 
Bump

***** just hit the fan, as they say a lie (or child in this case) never stays hidden.

Someone anonymously hand delivered a note through the fathers letterbox stating you have a 17 month old baby with your ex!

Obviously he's taken aback, but has made clear he wants to see his daughter. Ex and her family have made clear he can do what he likes but he won't see the baby. He is going to speak to a solicitor and go through legal.

Does he have a chance at gaining some time with the child given it's been so long and can be seen as being distruptive to the child at this point?
