This is awful!!! I agree 100% that if a man is PROVEN to be the father of a child, then they should have to reimburse the state for any said child care or monies the custodial parent received. PROVEN being the key word.... BEFORE they make the man/woman pay restitution, they should do a DNA themselves (department of child support services) to ensure they are not doing another person the way this man was done. IMHO, I feel they should find the real father and they should be held responsible AS should the mother who neglected to inform the real father of his responbilities! This man should be given back every dime he has paid and MORE!
