The father of my child was cheating on me while pregnant and attempted to hit me when i confronted him. He hasnt helped me from the moment we found out we were pregnant. july i found out he was cheating on me and i tried to convince him to change so we could be a family and he let me know he didnt want anything to do with me like i did something to him. he doesnt call to see if i need anything or help and neither does his family. he just wants me to contact him when i go into labor and thats when he'll start being around. so i dont want him or his family in my childs life due to the fact he was goin to hit me. he said he wasnt and he only did that cause he was mad. so from that i took that he would more than likely yell, shake or hit my child and blame it on being mad! now i am goin to move to another state due to not being happy where i am now.

It could become an issue depending on the state you live in. In some states he would have had to support you during pregnancy to have rights. In those states, by not offering you any support he is considered to have abandoned his child.

Some states also have a putative father registry, where the father would have to register with the state before the birth of the child if he wanted to have rights to the child.

The laws that would apply to you would be laws of the state that you have residency in. It really depends on the state you live in and the state you are planning on moving to.

Because you are still pregnant, there isn't a thing in the world he can do to stop you from leaving the state. Unless you apply for aid from the government, welfare or the like, you can't be forced to identify the father and even then, you can state you don't know his identity.

At this point, you are your own person and because you have the last say in what happens to your person (such as getting an abortion), neither he or his family have any hold on you legally.

If you were my daughter, I'd tell you to come home and never have a thing to do with that rotten so and so again. I'm a firm believer in father's rights, but with his actions so far and the idea my child and grandchild might be harmed by that 'father', well, you get the picture. Needless to say, he wouldn't get a call about the birth and he'd be a fool to show up on my doorstep.

Good luck and get out of town before your due date.

Honey, this is the deal. You can move anywhere you want. It doesn't matter if he has been there from day or if he hasn't had any interest whatsoever. The day he decides he wants to be a part of that child's life, you can force a paternity test by not naming him on the birth certificate. He would have to pay for it. Then He would have to pay child support through the court. Then HE has to request visitation and you can refuse in which it would end up in court. It doesn't matter what you do Hon, when you have a child with someone even if you want nothing to do with them, they have a right and most courts will give it to them. You can just make it harder for him by making him be the one to initiate everything. Good Luck to you.

Are you going to let your emotions get in the way?

I know right now you are looking for people to say "awww" and tell you what you want to hear. Life doesn't work that way.

After the baby comes around, and your sitting at home, with no food, phones have been cut off, and you have two weeks left to go for your welfare check to come in, what are you going to do? I don't want you to ask yourself that question. I want you to know what you are going to do. I want you to arrange with the father, he is the biological father right?

If he KNOWS he's the father, and he cares, he can file for a paternity test and have a legal document made up. He will send it off to you, and he will call an attourney to have charges laid against you. This is HIS choice, since you told him he was a father.

I don't care how you found out he was "cheating" on you. I don't care how you "got pregnant". I don't even care if you want to run away and change your name, and go under government protection. I only care about the well being of your child.

If you don't file with the father, your kid will hate you in years to come. Saying he threatened you, and putting your emotions before the truth in your childs mind will screw with the kids head. If you live as a single mother, when you HAD the chance, your kid will wonder, and so will ALL of your future boyfriends.

This is not a simple "custody" case you should be worried about. This is an entire psychological evaluation and life long decision you are making here.

I hope you don't choose what somebody on Yahoo!Answers tells you to be true. Imagine telling THAT to your kid when he turns ten years old. Imagine what his classmates will call him when he "reveals" the truth to his "friends".

Well if there's as yet no proof that he is the father you can leave when you want, however don't be surprised if he sues for paternity. If he is finally out of your life, you could always tell him you cheated on him and that it's not his child and then leave without telling him anything. He doesn't seem to care much anyway so you could get away with it. Good luck!!!

so which you genuinely certainly think of that hiding the youngster from the daddy is the superb ingredient to do? To me, it relatively is kidnapping. the daddy can report with the courtroom interior the state the place he lives, it relatively is the state the place you're leaving, on the instant after looking you have left. This state will carry jurisdiction, and could carry you decrease back to stand the courts. in case you haven't any longer yet been to courtroom, i visit presume you 2 have had a reasonably amicable dating. you may desire to ask your self, why the flight? Why are you being so egocentric as to disclaim the youngster a dating with the daddy? whether you and the daddy are no longer getting alongside to nicely, why do you get to ascertain that that father never sees his newborn? All you mothers accessible, we pay attention continually how coronary heart wrenching to be separated out of your newborn. Is it any much less coronary heart wrenching for the daddy to have his newborn disappear? Is it any much less coronary heart wrenching to the youngster to unexpectedly lose a father? Jurisdiction, if filed at as quickly as adequate, would be interior the unique state. think of approximately what share different persons you will rend asunder alongside with your single egocentric act to take the youngster and run. in case you may desire to bypass, maybe the dads needs to bypass too? maybe the two one in all you may artwork some thing out so the two one in all you may understand your newborn. Kidnapping, and that's how dad will see it, is erroneous, ordinary incorrect.

Sounds to me he won't even think twice about you and the baby anyway. But in the state i live in if there is not a case already open stating you cannot take the baby out of the state to live then you will be okay. You moving might miss with your Child support if you want it later but then again it might not. He should pay something he was at fault too!!

I wish the best to you!!

Here's the deal. Legally you are supposed to notify him if you move out of state ONLY if there is in some kind of binding legal document the two of you have put together. Since it doesn't sound like you have anything of the sort you are OK.
Think of it this way, if he tried to take you to court over it he would have to admit to not paying any support. The court would then step in and oversee his childsupport payments.
If this guy is as much of a deadbeat as he sounds he won't want that.

It does not matter where you live BEFORE the baby is born. But when the baby comes he will do a paternity test {he'll have to pay for it} and if it is his you CAN NOT leave state without his permission. He hit you, it does not mean he will hit your child, thou be aware, is he mature, responsible, etc.? and you can not escape court issues if you both are not together, theres child support. I hope this helps a bit. L.

I doubt if he cares if you move. In fact it sounds like he would be in favor of it. I would write him a letter telling him the state to which you are moving and mail it certified on the day you move. Do not say anything in the letter that would anger him so as not to give him cause to chase you. Good luck. There will be other answers later, read them carefully. DO NOT MAKE THE SITUATION WORSE. WATCH YOUR WORDS.
