Morning talkers.
A friend of mine is in a quandary.
He sired a kid with a woman he had a fling with.
While everything was still lovey dovey, he agreed to have his name on the kids birth certificate as the father. They later broke up amicably and every one minded their own business though they maintained regular phone contact. The guy later got married and is raising up a beautiful family of three kids.
The woman never got married and now with the boy in form two, she seems to have hit a rough patch in life and she has suddenly remembered the guy is the biological father. Sheās now threatening the guy to assist in paying school fees or be sued for child support.
Does the woman have a legal claim and if she goes ahead and sues, what will the court look at to reach a determination?
Ktalk lawyers or anyone else conversant with the process kindly advice. Cc @Luther12
I am very interested to know too
yes
the abilities of both parties and whether your āfriendā is indeed the father.
alipe tu, assuming he is 16 years at form two. miaka mbili ya fees ni kidogo sana
Expound
do you have an income? etc
She has a legal claim as long as he is the biological dad. Court will do a DNA if he disputes.
si alipe tu, conventional wisdom dictates that you take care of your own besides itās only a matter of paying the fees for two yearsā¦
mm
ah. fees nayo alipe. anataka nini sasa? lakini mambo ya kupatia mama pesa hapana.
Why canāt he just pay especially considering he has been in the full knowledge that the child is biologically his?Even without her asking for support he should have atleast been chipping in something.Stingy seed disseminating dick holder
Ni juzi tu tulikua tumekataa hii maneno ya friend
Mwambie alipe fees ya mtoto wake. He has a duty to educate the kid even beyond the 18 years. Being a father is a noble duty.
Ati a āfriend of mineā? Si useme tu iām the one in the quandary
If he is smart he will pay the fees personally si kutuma pesa. Let him take the fees structure and bank account alipe na apatie mama bank slip.
The moment atapelekwa court ndio atajua shida ni nini akianza kulea hadi mamaā¦plus the kid is almost 18. I think that means he will not be needed to pay child support. That means he can cut the mama out and assist the kid without worrying about being told to support the mama by the court.
The woman never got married(single momma tings)ā¦akakula uroda hadi boys akafika Form 2. Saa hizo akina @M2Random ndio wana facilitate everything. Single momma akaanza kuzeekaā¦boys akiwa Form 2,single momma amechapa yake yote. Hapo ndio anakumbuka shule zikifungwa, boys ako Na baba. BITCHEZ!!!
Eti child support? Child? Jamaa ako 16. Kabla your friend aende kortini,adult age itakuwa imewekwa 16. Just tell your friend aambie boys to make Joho his hero. Akae Tu home aende afanye KCSE 2019 its fully paid. Akamate D minus yake
That woman aki tangulia court before you ita Lilia kwa bafu, court ipeane ordersā¦ before ruling imekiwe iende kama mwaka naā¦ support kijana roho safi tu bila kusumbua
Donāt judge, you donāt know the situation.
ambia jamaa alipe tuu, Na ajitayarishe kulipa fees za college Na university pia.
Miaka mbili? Miaka mbili yawa? A man is wondering whether his own kid has the right to be supported for 2 years and some months out of 18 years? Tell your friend awache ujinga. Ati a beautiful family with three kidsā¦ hehehe. Let me give you a few worst case scenariosā¦
- The boy drops out becomes a thug and ends up robbing/raping/killing a member of that beautiful family because after all, ni kama you donāt even know each other.
Scenario 2: Everything works out for the boy but the beautiful family suddenly falls onto not-so-beautiful times and he ends up like the man who went looking for the son he rejected because he didnāt have someone to bury him or something.
For the most part a boy in high school has very clearly defined needs and doesnāt provide that many avenues for money to be eaten by the mother compared to an infant. In fact your friend should do more than just pay child support.
BOTTOM LINE: YOUR FRIEND IS A SELFISH PATHETIC EXCUSE OF A MAN FOR EVEN TRYING TO FIND A LOOPHOLE OUT OF A SITUATION MOST PEOPLE PAYING CHILD SUPPORT WOULD KILL FOR.
Lakini Mimi boy Wangu amesomeshwa mpaka afike 16 years,naanza kulipia pap Na tuanze Ku bond. Juu in two years atakuwa Ana mada Form 4. Depending on his performance,in another 4 years tops atakuwa Ana earn Na kurushia daddy ka kitu pale kwa paybill ya pub. Mimi Ni kaptula Tu Na goggles nikikunywa Tu bonus Na faida sijaguza. Mzee kijana.
I guess if heās the real father the most logical thing to do is pay the school fees. A lot of money and time will be spent on the court process from both parties. Money which should be going to the welfare of the child.
