Default Re: Mother who gave birth after one-night stand wins right to keep baby secret from t

This situation is messy.

Personally, I believe that if the mother wants to give up the child, the father should be given first option to take the baby. (And the mother should pay child support.)

Unfortunately, this is a situation where such a law would be, reaslistically, unenforcible. If the pregnant woman says that she didn't remember his last name and didn't know where he lived, then there is no way to contact him.
