Dna Test and Child support

by Larry Robinson
(Euless tx, us)

I am a thirty yrs old male and I have been paying child support for a child for the past 11 yrs. This childs mother (Letha Sherrie Smith), kept this child away from me for the past nine yrs of her life. I guess things got real bad for her because she got in touch with me through a mutual friend to tell me of their situation. I really didn't know how to respond but I am a softie when it comes to kids so I said you get your stuff together and we will inform all this authorities that we will be making a custody change. Well the next day they arrive at my house, Please remember I had not seen this child since she was a year old, When they walked in I was flabbergasted by this little girl. Alot of questions really started entering my mind as to why she kept this little girl away from me. I mean she didnt look anything like anyone in my family especially me... So a week later I took a Dna test and found out that this little girl is not my daughter.. I conveyed these results to the attorney generals office of Texas. They told me since I signed a court order back in 1998 that, this is what they are going to uphold.. I told them that first of all I didn't know of her indescretions. I thought we were together and when the original order was done it was so Letha could get state assistance due to me not working due to a on the job accident and my inability to provide health insurance for the little girl. Now I am faced with this and I don't know what to do. The OAG(office of the attorney general), won't listen to me and at my last court appearence in the case the judge said basicly he was sorry but oh well to bad for you.. I have contacted 32 lawyers that will not even touch this case..I don't know what to do...

Lying
by: Anonymous

I am the mother of Larry's 2nd child and I know for certain he has spent time with his first child. Larry kept Patrice for 3 years and was around her when she was small off and on. He chose not to be responsible until he married his current wife, 5-6 years ago. Larry has never been responsible for his children, but wants others to find pity in him. After finding out that Patrice was not his child a year or two ago, now he wants to reject her. Larry knew there wasn't a possibility he was the father years ago. Larry pays child support for our daughter but has not assumed his role of father/dad in her life. Larry is full of lies and knows his story is untrue. I understand he should not have to pay child support for the 13 year old because its only fair, but he knew the situation from the time the child was small. He wants everyone to feel sorry for him, but his actions lead to this reaction. I'm not here to tear him down, but to state on the truth.

The other side...
by: Anonymous

I am a custodial parent risiding in WI and the non custodial parent in TX. It has taken me 3 years just to establish a child support order. Before my order could even be etablished a DNA test needed to be done even thou my childs father signed the birth certificate I guess every state has it's own requirements because TX requested the DNA be done which concluded the already known results. Some of you men I feel sorry for..When I separated from my childs father I ASKED him to only pay day care $220 a month and he didn't have to send the funds to me he could pay day care directly. He said his child wasn't a bill and sent money when he wanted to so I turned to child support so here we are three years later and the order is set at $915 a month now he's upset, wants and amendment saying he can't afford it because he has two other children. Ask me why should I care it's fathers like this who ruin it for the few good men. Since our separation my family, his family and myself have mostly supported my now 5 year old daughter. I graduated in college in 08 and am now pursuing a master's degree. I never wanted his money only the responsibility. Am I glad interest accures daily or monthly am I glad in my case that the laws they have against what TX considers deadbeats apply yes. All of you are not bad men or bad fathers it's just the few have really messed it up for the many. Don't blame the law makers blame so of your dead beat azz non custodial parents who messed it up for you.

This is such B---S--T
by: Anonymous

I've been saying for the past 7 yrs. that it should be a law that when ANY child is born whether the parents are married or not they should have a DNA test done. Maybe some might be offended by this but the way I see it, is if your faithful then you have nothing to worry about. Besides it won't just be for confirmation of the child being yours or not but it will also tell you what kind of person your really with and whether you need to try and spend the rest of your life with them or tell them to get the hell out of your life!!! All these B----'s out there need to rot in hell for making a man believe he is the father of a child who doesn't belong to them. My husband just might be one of these men who is getting sucked dry from child support for a child who probably isn't even his and btw hasn't even seen since Thanksgiving '07 (because of the b--ch mother). I know for a fact that she has three children from 3 different men and she's of course collecting support from all of them and one of the men is paying on a child that isn't even his AND worst of all she has been lying to the little boy for the last ten years saying that that man is his Dad. What a whore!!!! We NEED Justice.

SICK OF LYING MOTHERS
by: SICK OF LYING MOTHERS

Same thing happened to my husband,,, after paying childsupport for 11 years the ex.. wanted more childsupport and was taking him to court for more money, this child looked nothing like him and he had already heard this child was not his from family and friends so he had a DNA test that proved that in fact the boy was not his biological son... when this was presented to the judge THANK GOD childsupport was stopped and his parental rights ended.. sad but the ex.. got away with not having to pay any of the childsupport she screwed my husband out of,, IT SHOULD BE A LAW THAT ANYONE SEEKING CHILDSUPPORT UNDERGO A DNA......

THAT IS SOOOO WRONG
by: Anonymous

THE WOMAN IN QUESTION SHOULD BE HELD IN CONTEMPT OF THE LAW FOR LIEING ABOUT WHO THE FATHER WAS. SHE LIED TO GET MONEY WHETHER IT WAS FROM THE MAN OR THE STATE, SHE SHOULD STILL BE PUT IN JAIL. I PAID OVER 30,000 DOLLARS BACK CHILD SUPPORT AND YOU KNOW WHAT, I MAY HAVE HAD THE SAME THING DONE TO ME. SHE WOULD NOT LET ME KNOW WHERE SHE WAS OR SEND ME ANY PICTURES OF THE TWO BOYS. MEN ARE GETTING SCREWED ROYALLY JUST BECAUSE THE LAWS ARE ONE SIDED.

you are a good man
by: Amy

God Bless you and I am so sorry!Men are going to have to start taking control of the situation and the laws by insisting on DNA tests no matter what! Never sign a birth certificate or any documents until you know for sure the child is yours. You accepted responsibility for this child because you claimed it without proof.
You will be rewarded in heaven for all that you have done for this child I hope that makes you feel better because you are a good man.
