Simple resson: if you've had a child since infancy, he is your child and you're his father and you're obligated to take care of that child till age of maturity. That's how Nature intended it.
It is NOT sperm that makes you someone's father!
Other people fight for custody of children tooth and nail. You don't have to do any of that. He's your child and you get ALL the benefits of fatherhood. He carries your name, references you as his father, and if he ever becomes something ALL fatherhood glory will go to you!
Though it is true not only biological way a man can become a father, but such a man deserve to know and consented to it but not through unconfessed infidelity.

OP, you are completely wrong on this.Nobody is saying sperm is the only thing that makes a man a father. A man can knowingly adopt a child and love that child completely. The key word is knowingly. He made that decision with the full truth in front of him.

What you are describing is completely different. You want a man to be deceived, denied the truth and forced to raise another man’s child simply because he has already developed an emotional attachment. That is not fatherhood. That is fraud.

Like someone said, the same woman defending this argument would not be happy if she discovered that her baby had been swapped at the hospital. Nobody would tell her to accept the child simply because she had already cared for the child, loved the child and developed an emotional bond.

She would demand the truth and want her biological child returned to her. Nobody would accuse her of being heartless or tell her that biology does not matter. So why should a man be denied the same right to know whether a child is biologically his?

Women regularly check their partners’ phones looking for evidence of side chicks, even after the man has repeatedly said he loves them and is faithful. They say they need reassurance and want to confirm that he is telling the truth. So why should a man be insulted, threatened or emotionally blackmailed for wanting confirmation that a child is biologically his?

Paternity is not a small issue. It affects a man emotionally, financially and legally for the rest of his life. It also affects the child’s identity, medical history, inheritance and relationship with the actual biological father.

This is why DNA testing should be compulsory at birth. It should be treated as a normal medical and legal procedure, not as an accusation against the mother. That way, no woman can claim the man does not trust her, no man has to beg for the truth and no child grows up under a lie.

If the test confirms that he is the father, everyone moves forward with certainty. If it shows that he is not, he deserves to know the truth and decide for himself whether he still wants to raise the child. That decision should be made through love and informed choice, not deception.

The child is innocent and must never be mistreated. But protecting the child does not mean protecting the person who created the deception. A woman should not be allowed to use tears, threats, shame or accusations of distrust to stop a man from confirming paternity.

Fatherhood through love, truth and choice is beautiful. Fatherhood imposed through deception is not.

➜You are totally wrong. Traditionally whatever child a woman has while your wife is your child - even if you're dead.
➜ Remember, children used to be regarded as wealth not obligation
. First of all, I am certain you have not really researched this one. The tradition you reference there applies to a small percentage, a minority of those from the Eastern parts of Nigeria, and the primary reason for this system was to give power to the husband in deciding whether or not to accept a child born in a marriage or not. In practice, many men did not accept children who were suspected of not being theirs in the marriage. That is why in many of the same Eastern cultures, sending the woman and her children packing was also commonplace. And bear in mind, this all took place before the DNA-testing age. undecided

2. Second, children from one's own loins were considered a wealth status, mostly by the rich, not the poor. Also, this excluded, for the most part, children who were considered bastards. undecided

So as you dey like dis, it is ok for your wife to and cheat on you for like 6 to 7 years and bring 5 children from 5 different men and pin them on you when your have a healthy sperm. If you yes, you do not belong to the beotherhood.

You keep talking about few people who choose adoption.

It is a fraud because you made a vow, why deceive your partner to believe the minor is his? It is a fraud because you're depriving the real father the joyhood of his child by keeping him with another man that is not his father, it is a fraud because you deprive the child of knowing who his real father and source of gene is by keeping him away from that gene to be shaped by the real owner.

This one is planning to pin a bustard on an innocent man. Does it also mean that any child that a man has with another woman is his wife's child?

Nigerian notion of fatherhood is founded on sperm contribution. Adoption is still considered generally foreign in that country. If a change should happen, it should be a reeducating of people in what fatherhood is, not the banning of DNA tests and stuff like that. undecided
Adoption is something that you go into voluntarily. Paternal fraud is making a man raise another guy's kid under false pretenses. These are completely different topics.

Well, OP refers to an old system that insists on giving the husband of the woman the right to claim all children born during a marriage as his own -- adoption in the case that the child is not his. That is why I included the mention of adoption in that response. undecided
Re: Why Government Should Ban DNA Testing Of Minors by Hungrychicken(m): 10:12pm On Jul 14
You should be ashamed of yourself as a woman, if you can't point your child’s father, so much that you need a DNA to help you out.

E.g the case of Davido, where the lady said that the artist impregnated her, but the artist denied ever meeting her. Now the child is a bastard.
Re: Why Government Should Ban DNA Testing Of Minors by bentenny(m): 10:13pm On Jul 14
There is a reason why paternity fraud exists and why it should be exposed instead of being condoned.
Why should I take up father responsibilities of a child that was born out of a lie?
What should happen is every child must be subjected to a DNA test to ascertain if the man taking care of them is their real father.
This will make mothers to be more accountable.
Re: Why Government Should Ban DNA Testing Of Minors by Hezmatosky210: 10:15pm On Jul 14
But jokes apart, there's elements of truth here o. Because after the love and bond with my children from pregnancy to infancy to adolescent to adult, many times we've shared love, sufferings, laughter, pains and joy together then one idiot from nowhere wants to drag me to go and do DNA, as how naw? The fact is that, I will never ever want to think whether the children are mine or not. Children wey i nurture from pregnancy till now angry

You are defrauded if the person tells you this is your child when it is not. Substitution without information or with outright lies is a fraud. Why do you have to be lied to? Why are you not given the choice to accept fatherhood or not? Why do you want the state to force this paternity fraud?

This was/is a scam that men allow women succeed with in the past (by mistake). Now, the same men are saying "no way." In our culture in the past there was no driverless cars. Cultures change, times change, knowledge change, and people change.
How is it a scam that you have a child that will know you as his only father and if he becomes anything tomorrow you get all the glory.
