Why don't you "man up" and ask for a DNA test. If you are the father, then you'll have to face the financial consequences. Otherwise, you are going to always be wondering down the road if there is sow warrant for non-support out there that you'll eventually have to face. When they yank you in and you protest proper service they'll eventually catch up with you and you'll have to face the issue sooner or later, anyway.
