No Wedding, No Rights For Fathers

By Dennis Prager

Whatever one's position on biological and adoptive parents, it was not possible to regard as anything but awful the government's taking of a 2-year-old girl from her family and handing her over to two people she has never known.

Is there a way to prevent such an evil from recurring; as indeed it is at this very moment in San Diego?

Yes, if we make marriage the only basis for fathers' rights and responsibilities.

Society must announce to men: If you don't marry the mother, you have no claims on her child; you have nothing to say if she wants an abortion or wants to give the child to adoptive parents.
