Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana

teenage father

If a girl knows exactly who the father of her child is but she never tells him is there a law against that. Is there a law against denying the father the right to know that he might be a father?

There is no law which forces a woman to tell the father. However, if the male feels he is the father of a child he can claim paternity and force a paternity test.
