Are Fathers Who Never Married The Mother Still Required To Pay Child Support?
Yes, the father must support his child even if he was never married to the child's mother. If the father does not admit he is the child's parent, fatherhood can also be proven with paternity tests.
When a mother is not married, it may not be clear who the father is. In some states, agreeing to be the legal father may not be broken later even if paternity tests later show that the man is not the father. If you are being asked to be the legal father of a child and you are not sure the child is yours, check your state laws first.
