Yes, he is the father of your daughteY whether he wanted to be or not. * If the issue pertains to the birth of the child, then no, such costs are not recoverable by the mother or any other party. A man cannot be held legally responsible for any financial matters relating to a child that is not born to a married couple until parentage of that child has been established. This includes child support, medical issues and all other financial matters as well as custodial and visitation issues.

If the child support order states that you must pay for medical insurance are you also obligated to pay the dental and optical bills not covered by the insurance?
most of the time they give responsibility to CARRY the insurance on the child to one parent but also state that the other parent has to pay half of the medical bills that are aquired. Depends on the divorce papers. Its all about the legalities. most of the time they give responsibility to CARRY the insurance on the child to one parent but also state that the other parent has to pay half of the medical bills that are aquired.

What do you do when you find out tha your girl is pregnant?
This is dependent upon your relationship. In my opinion, you should offer her your full support and help her with half of the costs of medical bills and the cost of raising the child. You should also provide yourself to be 50% of the child parenting relationship too and show your child what a father is supposed to be. The main thing right now would be to support your girlfriend and be there for her throughout her pregnancy.
