Only if paternity is in question.

What, and remove the chance for women to get up the duff and pass the child off as someone else's? Not a chance in Hell would women be in favour of removing a tool to manipulate men with, no way.

for what purpose because that's costly?

Yes...then maybe they will stay off the Jerry Springer show! PS...everyone need to know who thier parents are. Keeping a relationship and family ties is another issue all together.

No. It's a waste of time and money and no national health care system can afford that. What would be the point too? If a kid at some later stage wants to get a paterniuty test, it's up to them. But it shouldn't be imposed on anyone.

Maybe I'm obtuse this morning but what would mandatory paternity testing have to do with a national health care system? It's not like answering the "who's yer daddy" question would be needed to qualify the baby for care, since everyone is already qualified. In a situation where paternity is an issue (like child support), of course there should be testing at either parties request. But mandatory testing of all babies seems like a big waste of money.

Honestly, when I asked the question, I was thinking that as long as the government was going to be handling the whole process, that they should fill out their own paperwork, i.e. the birth certificate. . I don't think the cost would be that much, and it will reduce the costs to society over all. . In the 90's the Human Genome Project was compared to the Manhattan Project in size and cost. Now one can get their own genome mapped for $70,000. It's becoming a fad for the upper crust. .
