Paternity Testing Before Birth
|

A maternity or paternity identification test
is conducted to establish whether a person is the biological
parent of another person. A test to prove paternity (whether a
man is someone's father) is known as a paternity test; a test to
prove maternity (whether a woman is someone's mother) is called
a maternity test.
Although paternity tests are more common than
maternity tests, there may be circumstances in which the
biological mother of the child is unclear. Examples include
cases of an adopted child attempting to reunify with his or
her biological mother, potential hospital mix-ups, and in
vitro fertilization where the laboratory may have implanted an
unrelated embryo inside the mother.

Paternity fraud
Paternity fraud is the act of falsely naming a man
to be the biological father of a child,
particularly for the purpose of collecting child
financial support (also referred to as child
maintenance), by the mother when she knows or
suspects that he is not the biological father. |

Paternity Fraud and Parental
Rights
In most Western Countries there is a short window
for a man to challenge paternity claims, and, in
case of marriage, the law automatically assumes
that the child is the huband's. Critics claim this
rewards and encourages the perpetrators of
paternity fraud leaving men defenseless. The male
spouse may be victimized even after the
relationship has ended through the child support
enforcement system. Government agencies
responsible for the integrity of birth records
accept birth registration forms without paternity
testing. In some countries a duped husband may
incur the responsibility of fatherhood and sign
the birth registration forms believing that he is
the biological father of the child. In doing so,
in some countries, he becomes legally liable for
life for the child even when it is proven with DNA
evidence later that he is not the biological
father of the child and was deceived by the
mother. |
