I have already done a dna. but he has questioned the result in the past. won't see baby. I think it's because he's made digs previously he doesn't look like him (everyone says he looks like me as I'm mixed raced so baby has dark hair and eyes. his dad and his other kids have bright blue eyes). would you say he has his dads ears? thanks

Look similar, get a DNA test. They're not that expensive.

Well their faces are identical so not sure what the problem is?

They have the same eyes, and the shape of the mouth is very similar.

Why would comparing some photos be more compelling evidence than a DNA? Hmm

If he won't believa a DNA test from a reputable lab, do you honestly think comparing ears will get you anywhere? Confused

How are the opinions of a load of internet randoms going to help here? You already have your answer.

Does he not understand what DNA is?
If he argues with scientific evidence, it sound s like he really Just doesn't want anything to do with fatherhood.

that is hilarious. I have blanked their faces as I don't want his dad to know I have posted his picture. a little boy will grow up without a dad just because he looks more like me than him. I was asking a genuine question about my child!

This is a pointless exercise.

You have done a DNA test right?

It proves the person who you told is father, is infact that father?

If they still don't believe it won't have anything to do with the child, tough. Sort out maintenance payments and then wash your hands of him.

So does the DNA say he is or he isn't?

No-a little boy will grow up without his dad because his proven biological father is an arsehole who won't believe a DNA test.

hes questioned the dna once at the beginning. since then he says he knows he's his. it's a long story but basically won't have anything to do with him. I don't know whether he's just a lying dead beat. or whether my child actually bares zero resemblance to him. hence why he won't accept him

If he wanted to see the baby, he wouldn't be quibbling about the DNA test. I'm sorry op but you might have to accept that the father just doesn't want to see his son. Some people are just arseholes unfortunately Sad

Tell him to stop being so daft. Then never discuss it again

I don't know how old your little one is, but please make sure he's not exposed to this type of chat from his dad.

So he knows the boy is his but won't have anything to do with him and you're asking about his ears?

You can't force a relationship. You can petition him for child support.

Does he pay child support?

He sounds a useless waste of space, tbh. I would think your child will be better off without him in his life if this is how he is.

elspeth Grin sorry OP.

As long as you are getting child support from him (or have at least started the ball rolling) then Id leave him out of the scenario. If the father of my child denied he was his, I wouldn't beg him to change his mind. He's the one missing out at the end of the day and has to live with himself for ignoring his child - Horrible as it may seem, but your son wont know any different other than his mum bringing him up the best she can.
