Ladies, your days of unabashedly betraying your significant others, the real baby daddy, and the child; may soon be ending. This bill also allows for CRIMINAL penalties š.
I can see upsides.
Of course, husbands could find out if their wives got knocked up by someone else.
Couples could accidentally find out that they are siblings.
It might be discovered that a child's mother or father are also their sister or brother.
And I imagine a lot of brothers, step brothers, uncles, cousins, fathers and step fathers would get busted for rape or statutory rape.
But I can also see possible downsides around the idea of ever increasing government intrusion into personal privacy and bodily autonomy. Maybe they will eventually put a microchip birth certificates to prove that the person is government property.
I looked the bill up to see the language and intent.
All I found was Tennessee HB 2689. "As introduced, authorizes a āParents' Day Outā or similar program operated by a religious institution or organization to provide 12-hour per week child care services in whatever block of time desired; requires the department of human services to create a $10 million fund to provide unlicensed care providers in rural counties with assistance in making facility upgrades for licensure; allows care providers in rural counties to provide child care for up to 10 children without being licensed if certain conditions are met. - Amends TCA Title 49 and Title 71."
SHOULD be mandatory everywhere imho, years ago I knew a guy whose ex claimed paternity, he had had a vasectomy many years before, she claimed to be on the pill,,,
TN 2689 died in the summer of 2022.
DO try to keep up with the times.
And it wasn't mandatory it essentially meant that any UNMARRIED man was allowed to have a paternity test despite objection from the mother before he'd put his name on a birth certificate. It was essentially meant to protect men from having to pay child support to cheap easy sex sluts they fucked if the child wasn't theirs.
.
HB 253 ā SB 331 - which replaced TN 2689 - means that someone will be jailed when a person fraudulently seeks to establish themselves as the biological parent of a child or the legal parent of a child based on status as a biological parent when the person knows or reasonably should know that they are not a biological parent of the child
Go for it! Trying to tangle a man in to being a father of a child that isnāt his is wrong! I wouldnāt hesitate if the father of my children wanted a paternity test, in fact I have heard from others that heās questioned if our daughter is really his and that infuriated me but heās never discussed it with me but I would have no problem proving to him he is in fact her father! Itās disgusting that as a single mother of three that I have to make a point that they all have the same father, Iām sick of women who make the rest of us look bad. But it is what it is and I figure if a man wants to question me than he isnāt for me and I am just fine being single!

Well, the state is proactively taking action that these moron men should already be doing.
That test is there. Even if you trust your girl and you have no reason to suspect anything... you still get the test just to be sure.
TRUST BUT VERIFY.
Why any man would let their name be legally placed on a birth certificate and he'd take on the legal, financial responsibility to pay for a kid for 18 years and to intentionally pass up a test to verify he is dad is beyond me.
I know a bunch of butt hurt women and butt hurt men will chime in and start babbling about how they trust this and that and how dare a man question her sainthood.
GET OUT of your personal examples and beliefs and trust. Think big picture.
About 25-30% of paternity tests show the husband IS NOT the father. So these cases are real, and blind trust is a foolish thing to do.
Just get the test. If you are dad and you already knew that and didn't doubt it at all GREAT! But, those that are not dad and who have been duped need to know so they can get the hell out of there and she can go after her affair partner for child support.
should have been done a long time ago in the hospital shortly after the child is born. if people know who they are sleeping with or slept with should be no issue or uproar about it- personal accountability. other states should but lord knows there will somehow someway be people protesting this even 🤦āāļø
This is a response to falling marriage and birth rates causing men to partially or fully check out of the economy. It is only in the west that women are free to have children with whomsoever they choose irrespective if he's capable of financially supporting the child because they know the state is going to step in as daddy and pay for rearing that child. However, as the economy is not doing so well, and more and more men are going the RedPill way mandatory DNA testing and elimination of permanent alimony are being considered.
This will absolutely eliminate any accusations of trust issues for men who want to be as sure that their child is theirs as the woman is.
I don't like avenues for the government to get involved in our life more but this is a serious fucking problem and I would love to see cheaters eat a big fat L.
This makes me proud to be a Tennesseean. I had a cousin commit suicide because He could not see "his" kid. The woman milked him for child support for 5 years. He tried to keep up, but he was laid off work and fell behind, which caused him to lose rights to visitation until he caught up.
He suspected the kid was not his, but still loved him anyways. The tramp admitted he was not the father, but never came clean because she enjoyed the support Michael gave her. I would still have my older cousin, who was more like an older brother to me, had she not been so greedy and had been honest!
I am overjoyed to hear this knowing that my brothers in Tennessee will no longer be subjected to the frauds perpetrated by women and children in Tennessee will finally be able to know with confidence who their fathers really are.
I only wish that that your prediction that it will spread to other states was true. I have a bad feeling about this given the fact that women just have too damn much political power and won't let this happen.
Itās sad that it has come to this level. Some part of our society is just so awful.
those who are legit have no worries.
I hope more people take love, romantic relationships, family unity seriously and raise healthy children to become our future citizens who will do great things rather than not knowing who they slept with.
I am really not sure whatās going on out thereā¦my surroundings, friend groups are not like that.
Very good law. Paternity fraud puts some men on the hook for children that aren't theirs. This can get very expensive beyond child support payments, including paying for an attorney.
In some places, a single mom who applies for welfare is required to name the father of her child in order to get benefits. Of course, she has no incentive to get it right and the state doesn't care which man it collects money from that it forwards to the mother.
Honestly, I hope they wait to see how it works out before anyone follows.
Tennessee is one of the states with the highest incest incidence rates, and abortion is basically not an option. If an abuser knows that what they did will be revealed by a paternity test if the victim gives birth, and what they did would also have to be revealed in order for the victim to be possibly able to get an abortion... well there's not a lot of options left for the abuser to take to keep themselves from being found out...
I'm just saying, I hope other states pay attention to any shifting crime statistics from Tennessee in the next few years.
The idea of mandatory paternity testing may sound nice at first, but like most other mandatory tests or personal information submissions to the government, there can be serious consequences for people who are already in a tough situation.
Just a little justice would be a nice change of pace.
i also wish that someone would propose a bill that if there is a false accusation of rape that the false accuser would be responsible for all the falsely accused legal bills and compensation for lost wages and go to prison for the same amount of time that the falsely accused would have.
false accusers diminish the believability of actual victims.
I certainly hope so, although I could also see cucked shithole states like California making it illegal like France.
I guess you don't actually care about the government controlling you or forcing you to do things against your will. Interesting how that narrative changes.
🤣🤣 about time!
I have no issues with that whatsoever, hope they all follow suit.
Some will, some won't. Hopefully none follow the example of some European nations and make it illegal without the mother's consent or an exceedingly difficult to obtain court order.
This should of been done years ago. TN is actually one the of best states at treating fathers fairly so it doesn't surprise me they passed this law. I just wonder how many guys are going to find out their kid isn't there's. I think it's going to be a lot since they just passed the law. Hopefully they can then track the Actual Father down to take responsibility for his kid.
Will they? Maybe.
Should they? Yes.
A woman can never doubt she's the mother of her kid. A man can never know for sure.
And seeing how much feminists and leftists are panicking at the idea of a mandatory test, you know the numbers are high.
I don't see how they could force this onto parents tbh. I don't allow other people to touch my babies not even doctors so how would they go about these test if the parent refused?
Personally I don't know if other states will follow but I sure hope they do.
Pretty good idea. It'll keep women from trying to trap the wrong guy into child support. Although it could backfire on any dude trying to escape it too lol.
I support this. It will definitely out a shit ton of cheating whores.
