Contractual freedom to agree about child support rights

Many women want to have a baby, but, for some reason, don’t find the appropriate man or husband. A man willing to the father and assume fatherly duties. The typical solution is to dupe a man into fatherhood by lying about birth control.

1) Women should have right to renounce rights to father’s child support

We propose that

a) A woman should be empowered to contractually agree with a man to have his baby and not demand any child support.

Advantages:

1. In most developed countries, more babies are urgently needed. This probably will lead to higher birth rates. The richer, more educated, more capacitated women will have children of their choice, that are wanted.
2. No manipulation needed, no dishonesty about accidentally "forgotten birth control" to get pregnant against the man’s expressed wish
3. female empowerment: the woman can have her wish, pick the father of her choice and have a baby.
   1. Most men would feel honored to be chosen as a father, without being obliged to support the baby nor having to get along with the woman for the next 20 years.
   2. many men would, voluntarily, by mutual agreement give some aid and support in child raising, in spite of the waiver.

It fixes our perverted system in which

1. the most irresponsible and uncontrolled, least intelligent and poorest men have the most offspring
   1. these people are the most unfit genetically (their offspring will be less intelligent and have less self control)
   2. these people are also most unfit as parents and educators: they are less responsible, less intelligent
   3. these people are less unfit financially to provide a good home
2. society pays for these offspring, with welfare that often encourages the poor to have more offspring to receive more money. These children are not welcome and loved, they are either accidents or planned to increase welfare income. A bad and traumatic start of a life for a baby.
3. The well-to-do fear child support payments. Poor deadbeats that are unable to pay, and anonymous one night stances can get unlimited offspring without legal and financial responsibility

b) A man should be allowed to contractually assume all child care and support obligations after birth

Equally, a man can agree to take a child, after birth, assuming all child care and support.

This might convince a woman to forego abortion, or to become pregnant.

This ultimately empowers women, because it still is fully her choice to decide to terminate a pregnancy. She might find it attractive to have a baby without obligations.

Or she might do it as favor for the man, almost like a surrogate pregnancy.

All this would help to increase birth rate and reduce the population shortage problem in developed countries.

Who will pay for children’s needs?

If one party was relieved of his/her obligation, the other party.

1. The party that took up the contractual obligation, mostly the mother. After all are women not empowered and independent? Don’t women have professions, salary, self sufficiency. Women did this for centuries and millennia, before the advent of liberated professional women and welfare.
2. Welfare support. Government already pays support for children of deadbeat dads and moms in poverty. Why can’t they pay for the honest working tax paying father? Whoever took up the responsibility should pay him/herself, unless they are below poverty level.
