hmm, TLR isn't the place for quality dialogue on this, but in this case, what do men (families) do? i mean it's one thing to get this news at 6 months, the kid isn't really old enough to be attached to you or know you, and you can more easily pull away - though you'll likely have some emotion attached - and of course haven't dumped the amount of time, money, and resources into the child. but six years of being with the kid? do you just bounce, if so, how do you deal with that emotionally? how do you deal with the way the kid will interpret you just bouncing - we've all seen/heard folks who have issues when their pops just dumped them. do you stick around but not contribute financially? what if the woman is doing bad and your help is the difference between that kid living in squalor vs a decent life?
that is all on the woman tho, you gotta woman up in cases where you're fukking different men and end up pregnant, ALL parties, including the baby, need to know the truth.
