Why do men take care of other mens children but not their own? My ex disappeared when I was pregnant. He has never seen, ask, or talk to our son, whom is 2 now.He denies him although paternity confirms that he is the father. He tells people his now step son is his one and only bio child. He is a dotting father to this 9 yr old. My ex is 30 what are the chances my ex will be father to our child or my our child continue to be denied. It's a horrible disscusion I dread to have with our son when he comes of age.

You need to stop worrying or wanting something that he is not

Why aren't you hitting him up for child support? If he is forced to pay support he can't really deny the child.

As to why, there could be several reasons. I don't know how long you were dating when you became pregnant. Or how old he was at the time. Maybe he wasn't prepared to be a father then. Maybe he feels you tricked him by becoming pregnant. Maybe any of several other possibilities. I'm just throwing out guesses here.

But you can't force a man to be a father to his children. You can only force him to be financially support the child.
