A woman’s attempt to strip her ex-boyfriend of parental rights on the grounds that her 3-year-old special needs child is incapable of bonding with him has been rejected by a Family Court judge in Syracuse.
In Matter of A.S. v. B.H., a mother sought to vacate the acknowledgment of paternity that her former boyfriend signed. The mother, noting that a subsequent home DNA test indicated the boyfriend was not the child’s biological father, attempted to cut the man out of her son’s life by pleading an unusual argument.
