Well - yes it does! the law says so - he played a role in bringing this child into the world, he has an obligation to feed and clothe and shelter it - that takes money.
Obviously. My solution is that we get custody and pay for the baby's food, clothes and shelter. OW can pay child support to help us.
I would hope, if this child was raised in one household instead of two, that it could be sheltered from the information that it was the product of an adulterous affair until it was grown.
I would hope so, too. And that would be my plan. But I'm not a manipulative woman.
