Thats what I basically would have said.

I agree with everything everyone has said. Don't get married for a child.

I probably don't even know 14 people. Plus you're young. Why are they all pregnant? How many of them are married?

It's 2008 not 1948 there is no need to marry for the birth of a child. Just because you shared a bed with someone and conceived a child doesn't mean you should get married.
The marriage will go down in flames (Trust Me) I did exactly that, I married my ex wife because she became pregnant, and that was the biggest mistake I have ever made in my entire life. If you are going to marry, marry for love not the welfare of a child. It will end in divorce eventually, because the love was never there in the first place.
Don't mistake Lust for love and marry for the wrong reasons. Divorce is alot harder on the kids that are involved, so marring for the fact that you got knocked up is a bad idea. IMO.

Why is the father the one who automatically is "kept in the child's life" but not raising the child? In cases where both parents want the child the parent who is more responsible/financially prepared to raise a child should get the child. Not automatically the mother.
A little off topic but I felt that everybody else overlooked that statement.

good point hybrix, i totally didnt think of saying that. weird seeing as my father raised me. we'll just change that to the person who doesnt get custody of the child. so now that question is :
how about keeping the non custodial parent in the child's life without marriage?

In my opinion- it'd depend on if they want to stay in the kids life- and how the custodials' relationship is with the non-custodial.
If the parents are gonna fight all the time- I wouldn't want my kid to see that. but if they can be civilized- I think the non-custodial parent should be involved in their kids life.
