I'm assuming when you say "duped" you mean that you didn't know she was pregnant. I'm not sure how he would get out of this responsibility if you had a test done to prove that you were not the father. That's the first thing that comes to my mind. I would have demanded that a DNA test be done to prove that you were in fact NOT the father. It doesn't make any sense why they would not do that, because I'm assuming that you contested this.

Jacklynn, Sorry to read your story. But think as though you are raising a parentless child. May be God could only trust you to do the job his own parents failed. See the blessings you are giving to this child in your sacrifice, find solace in knowing that and be a happy giver. Whatever you are doing be for this child, remember God will never ignore your givings, and you can never outgive God's blessings. God has given you, that is a blessing in itself, you are giver not the taker. How blessed to be in that position. God bless you and remain with you forever.

How were you "duped"? It was your decision in the end, no one else. If you don't love the child. then you need to get a pretern test and contest it in court. If you do, then you need to demand rights to help raise the child. Did the real father sign over all rights to you and you adopted it?

It's definately wrong, I feel sorry for both you and the kid :( Am I getting this right and did you have a relationship, she cheated and when she found out she was pregnant she asked you to marry her? That's just plain sick :S

Yes in some states when a woman has a baby while she's still married the husband is still responsible for that child even if its not his. I wish I knew how this story ends because the author of this question hasn't been in since 2007 & said the mother died I just wonder who has the child now. Personally I understand a man feeling duped when he thinks the child he raised & given his namesake don't really blood related belong to him they feel very betrayed but at the same time I know people adopt children everyday that don't belong to them & give them their namesake & love. But they chose to do that its not something they are tricked into thinking is theirs. I know so many men this has happened too, my heart goes out to them & these children because they suffer too because of their mothers lies.

DNA test results should help you. I don't understand why you would have to pay for a child that is not yours. Did you adopt the child?
