Paternity Question
Hi everyone! Let me give a brief rundown and let me know what you think...
My daughter is almost two years old. Her "dad" basically told me sorry when I told him I was pregnant and I haven't spoken to him since. (This was in Arizona). When my daughter was 7 months old, I moved to TX for my job, and I have been living here, taking care of my daughter on my own. (no government assistance or child support.) My question is this... I know he has rights even though I didn't put his name on the birth certificate. Through the grapevine (my sister is friends with the family.. ) he said if I were to ever ask for child support, he would want to see her, but other than that he is not interested. This man (her dad) is a horrible person (very vindictive) and come to find out after I was pregnant, he has several illegitimate children... nice huh? I just want to forget about him and get him to sign away his rights, but I have not done anything legally, because I just don't want to draw attention to it... I know he would try to just do anything he can to spite me and I don't want him near my child. What would be the best way to go about this? I want us to have a clean slate and no interference when I do meet the man I would like to marry and be a father figure to my daughter. Please let me know what you think. Thank you! |
