parent trap

Quote From: moonsluv

 What a sad state of affairs when a woman will intentionally lie to have a certain man as the father of her child. It is wrong to knowingly name a man as the father if he is not. I can certainly understand the anger of the men this has happened to. But by the same token, the child, that has only known this man as father, is going to suffer. The emotional impact to this child could be a life long problem, and manifest itself in ways that may come to light in later years.
the most important thing is to let the child(ren) know that they are not to blame for any of the problems, but that there is a problem that needs to be worked out.
My only question is that even though this has been done, how can he walk out on a child that he has raised on his own for so many years, without a thought of love to that child. I would think the emotional costs to the 'father' would also be great.
I do feel sad that so many women have knowingly done this, and I feel for the men  that have been caught in the trap, but I would say, think of the child before making a rash decision that is going to cause such emotional upheavel in the life of the child.
I too believe that the truth should be told, but there is a way to do, that does not put the child on an emotional roller coaster.

I believe the answer to your question is, "the new wife".
