Question about Child Support
I was dating a woman for a few month and shortly she announced that she is pregnant. I did not planned to have a child, but she insisted that she will keep the baby. Soon after we broke the relationship and now she is asking for all kinds of child support, including college funds, increased living expences and many others. Child is not even born (due in August). What is my options? Please explain. Thank you.

Re: Question about Child Support
If you are the father, then you will be required to pay child support although in Texas that does not include college funds. Perhaps you should consider a paternity test.
