dont believe that garbage
Don't believe that "garbage" which happens to be a fact?

If a woman claims you are the father, the federal goverment will summon you and have a genetic test for it. It's not that difficult. Paying isnt't even the worse part. You , statistically speaking, won't get custody and your paycheck is being cut.
It is bureaucratic and complicated, actually. Read up on the link, it's the government website.
I can quote one small part of it here:
- Information about the noncustodial parent
- Birth certificates of children
- If paternity is an issue, written statements (letters or notes) in which the alleged father has said or implied that he is the father of the child.
(- Legally determining the father through paternity test if that is an issue)
- Your child support order, divorce decree, or separation agreement if you have one
- Records of any child support received in the past
- Information about your income and assets
- Information about expenses, such as your child’s health care, daycare, or special needs.
And more on that page.
No wonder so few are actually demand child support from the father compared to the number of single mothers out there. Personally I only know 2, and both wanted nothing to do with the father so they don't bother. Bringing the father to court for money is pretty much admitting to being a gold-digger in the eyes of their friends.
