He isnt necessarily going to be paying. That I think is one reason why abortion was legalised in many countries, and why women legally have the right to make the decision about whether to have an abortion or not. So many fathers run from their pregnant partners, and so many who dont take on few to none of the day to day childcare responsibilities when a child is born. These responsibilies most of the time fall heavily on a womans shoulders.
A womens chance of gaining a responsible father for her child are a lottery.
Among the poor, many women even here in the US do not receive child support from their baby-daddies.
I know; I live and work among them, and many of my female acquaintances, neighbors and coworkers, are raising their children alone or with a boyfriend who is not the children's father, with
no help or financial assistance whatsoever from the biological father of their children.
My own husband's mom raised him and his siblings alone, and never ever tried to get child support out of her abusive ex after he ran away. He threatened to come back and kill her if she did. She was simply glad to be rid of him, and in fact that's how many mothers feel.
They have no intention of chasing after worthless men for
anything. Half of these baby-daddies don't work anyway, or else they work illegally or under-the-table and get paid in cash, so what's the point of suing them for child support? At best, they might spend a week or two in jail here and there. It's only going to piss them off, and ultimately they'll take it out on mom and the kids.
It is not a given that men will or can be made to pay child support.
People who believe that it is have never spent any significant amount of time around the lowest socioeconomic sectors.
Women are running the show, in those sectors. So many of the men are simply worthless, stuck forever in the revolving door of the penal system, and in a perpetual state of gang-banging adolescence.
