There is a case in the Ohio courts involving a 7-year-old
boy, whose father discovered he was not the father, after becoming a widower. I was taught that the law considered the mother's husband at the time of the birth to be the legal father, but apparently that has changed. DNA
testing proved another man to be the biological father, and he has won visitation rights and is suing for custody. Sad.

I've also just read about a scientist coming under attack because he wants to push ahead with attempting to clone
humans. Our technology is definitely outstripping our
values. So few years ago, there was no way of proving
parenthood. Older women are giving birth to their
childrens' babies. Contracts with surrogate mothers.
All new to the legislators, who must attempt to draft rational laws about what had been the unthinkable.
