Eliminating child support in favor of subsidies to encourage men to not fear fatherhood
Post Body

Men these days, when faced with the inevitability of becoming a father when the pregnancy was accidental, freak out over the possibility of their "life being ruined" due to being sued for child support. They run, leave the mother to fend for herself creating an environment hostility off the bat between both parents. There is always the possibility that a child born out of wedlock would be raised by a single mother. Increasing subsidies for low/middle income single woman who become mothers would ensure the child receives adequate care quelling any fears the mother would be financially incapable of raising the child on her own. She should look forward to motherhood no matter the situation the child was conceived in.

Regarding the father, he should not feel pressure or fear that the legal system would ensnare him with the threat of prison for not paying especially if he is incapable of providing adequate financial assistance. It is imperative that for the "best interests" of the child, that there be guaranteed stability. Less pressure would increase his willingness to "step up" as an involved father.

Education from a young age on the joy, expectations and responsibility of fatherhood from a young age he would be more enthusiastic to see fatherhood as a positive addition to his life no matter whats his age or situation is.

A woman would use more discretion in seeking parters depending on their ability to be a good father, It would ultimately being her call as to what kind of involvement he has. if any. One way to raise the birthrate and create enthusiastic parents IMO
