DNA test as part of postnatal health service bill

[Makus]

I feel like a DNA test shouldn't be much of a big deal and it is something that should be done without letting it cause any sort of conflict, besides DNA tests are not only about confirming the paternity on a child this test is also carried out to know if they are any medical conditions that are being passed genetically. what happens between couples nowadays is that once this is suggested by the Manchester woman starts seeing it as a disrespect to her but that shouldn't the mindset behind this

[AmoreJaz]

DNA testing is very sensitive investigation. It is classified into two.  Rest of mind DNA test and Legal DNA test. In rest of mind this where the man felt his not comfortable with the activities of his wife. Therefore choose to clear any doubt without any legal registration. While legal DNA test is where both couple are in dispute. Acquisition and Advice of cheating. Such DNA test is refer as legal. Law have to sign such results.
Making a postnatal Bill for DNA test is optional, it is unacceptable to impose such into ones marriage. Besides the outrageous Bill for DNA test can't be affordable by many. DNA testing is only requested for promiscuous marriage.

This is true. If you are in doubt, you won't be at peace with yourself up until you did this step. This is also a very solid ground for Legal issues if both parties are in conflict. But for regular deliveries without any issue, I don't think you need to include this in the service bill because this is quite expensive. And it is not very practical especially if the family can't afford such service. Unless, we have this test kit where you can get the results in just few hours at a very cheap rate.
But if you trust your spouse enough, for me, there's no need for this and so this is only additional bill for the family if it will be like a mandatory test after birth. For me, it should be an optional and not mandatory.

in the meantime, in the US -


So I don't know in other countries. There may be good reasons like having database so it is easier for criminal investigations and such. But we all know that not all people can afford this. So for me, this is fine as long as it is not mandatory.

There must be good reasons for such testing. This means that the fact of the wife's infidelity must be established (for example, caught red-handed, or there is irrefutable evidence). Just suspicion is not enough to conduct testing. Of course, an insecure person may insist on testing based on their suspicions. But if the test shows his paternity, then there will be no turning back. The relationship between the spouses will be ruined by distrust forever.

You know your wife and your wife knows you
then why DNA test? Is it not waste of funds?

Personally I feel that DNA test is very important for every family to do (if they have the money to do it) a lot of things are happening in the hospital these days and switching a child after birth by some of the hospital staff is not a new thing now in this generation so we all need to be careful and do a DNA test and not because you are doubting your partner but because you don't want to raise a child that isn't yours biologically. There are people that give birth to their children through a nurse that is operating on her own outside the hospital and most times she only has one patient to attend to so it's more safe there because you have nothing to worry about as switching your child but in the hospital a DNA test is very important.

[DaNNy001]

The reason why some men ask for a DNA test for their children is mostly because of some certain suspicion they are getting towards their wives, if the trust is there between the both partners there won't be need for a DNA test. however as a man, I advice that if your suspecting that the children you have with your wife are not yours biologically, I believe you should go for a DNA test privately with those children, asking permission from your wife makes her looks awkward, as she would begin to question herself if this man doesn't trust me and this will certainly cause fiasco in the family, so in a bid to avoid that kind of a drama, it is better you visit the hospital and do it privately on your own.

you have a point, if a man suspects his partner isn't faithful to him then there's no need to ask his wife for permission to run a paternity test when he can juat run it privately..most ladies cause a scene because they know that they are guilty because if they really have nothing to hide they won't allow such a small thing resort to a big issue..personally I don't see anything wrong in running a paternity test

But then, the cost of DNA test will for sure make postnatal health service bill more expensive if a hospital adds it to their service charge, because not everyone can afford it even if it is a personal (the husbands) decision.

You know your wife and your wife knows you

Honestly this would really become a problem and possibly might break some lovely homes because the rate at which men discover they ain't the paternal father of their kids it's so alarming  and hence the need for conducting a DNA test after childbirth to confirm if the child is his. Likewise the fee for that shouldn't be expensive at least there should be a discount by the hospitals. All of this is because the society today slot are going on under cover and by chance if noticed it becomes a time bomb.

There has been different ideas about running DNA test. People dropping there utmost mind about the running of DNA test.

A man was like as a husband, you have a lot of responsibilities so make sure you don't ignorantly take responsibility of another man's child or even children thinking it's yours. Do DNA test.

A lady was like if she gets married and her husband insist on a DNA test and at the end it confirms he is the father, that she will make sure he doesn't have access to the child and that means the end of the marriage, even when it's that she already has other children before the confusion of running a DNA test.
This makes me ask if running of DNA test is really a confusion?

Running a DNA test as a man or woman is personal decision, most test the paternity of their kids when they are having suspicions about infidelity from their spouse but this causes conflict most times. The best thing to do is to run the test privately without informing tj woman about it. Asides from paternity a DNA test can also be done to detect other things as well and it's very important

The moment your partner starts acting suspicious and giving you a reason to doubt, then I don't think it's a waste of funds in anyone.
I have heard so many crazy stories of people raising kids that aren't theirs even till this day. Conducting a DNA test is not a crime, especially when there is already too many reasons to doubt your partner. The truth, this matter of paternity test doesn't have a general method of addressing it because it can be a bit complicated for others, especially when the partner ends up coming out clean.

**Should it really become part of a husbands budget on every child delivery?

I don't think it should be a must for every man to conduct a DNA test on the delivery.
Most relationships that are still standing together, are heavily built on love and trust, and the last thing a man would want to do is to break such trust especially when he doesn't have a probable reason for doubts. But mind you, there are other cases where a lot of people have been forced to raise the kids of other men unknowingly, just because they trust.

DNA test should never be consider as waste of fund, because in this world we are living now a lot had changed. And the so female genders is not to be trusted anymore, and sorry to say they are evil. This female gender can go to grave with their evil secret. Well Am trying not to be rough here, but this so called female genders had hurt me a lot and I know they have hurt a lot male genders out there with this their obnoxious way of doing things. At least if you haven't been a victim before, you have heard other people's stories on how they struggled training another person's children, and later find out that those children was never their own so ridiculous. Do you know how painful it is to grow old with children and later find out that they were never yours?

[JoyceBTC]

Well having a DNA test is not a bad thing but the truth is that before a man starts asking for a DNA test, it means he’s not sure if the child is his. Because on a normal day he will not just suggest for a DNA test when his very sure he’s the father of the child and also considering how expensive running a DNA test cost.

Most women don’t find it funny when their husband request for a DNA test even when they are 100% sure the child is for their husband because they feel for their husband to ask for a DNA test implies that the man doesn’t trust them and believe they had an affair with someone else. Why some women are not actually happy about it is because they know the child is not for their husband.

While this question is for everyone,it depends on how you and your wife understand each other in the house and how frequent your wife move from outside and coming back to your house,if your wife goes to market all the time bear it in mined that she might cheat on you,women are not trusted at all so you need to do DNA test ,it help in a marriage relationship,I support DNA test

Very few people get DNA tests done but those who do do it to prove their suspicions right. Most men do it because DNA is a personal decision and many personal things are associated with it. Men think that it is better to get a DNA test done first than to suspect someone and then accuse them because if the accusation is wrong there can be many problems in the relationship and if his suspicions are proven correct it can put a lot of pressure on the child and the rest of their lives. Before getting a DNA test done the circumstances emotions and results should be taken into account so that there are no problems later.

If you're at the point where you don't trust your partner so much that you need to take a DNA test, then you need to have a long think about whether you should even be together at that point. We've all heard horror stories in the media and they are absolutely clickbait type articles, but they are so far from the norm that you need to wake up. Yes there are people out there who cheat or end up doing other things that results in a baby, but you can usually tell or get a feeling if this is happening in your life. We should not normalize or encourage this sort of intrusive and frankly paranoid behavior, there needs to be more trust in life than this. Would you sacrifice your partner if they agreed on the provision that you break up regardless of the results? Even if it was your kid. That's the real question to be asking.

You don't really know anyone totally these days, some people have the desire to run such tests when there occurs events that births suspicion on their paternity of the children for e.g, like catching your wife cheating, your blood not matching if your child is in desperate need of blood after an accident or even making shocking discoveries on wife's past which ensured after you two have been married.

It is said that only a woman truly knows the father of a child and if you ever find yourself in a situation where you question the paternity any of your children, the best way to put your mind at rest is to go for the test for that child or all your children. It is always better to figure it out on time than much later in life after taking full responsibility of another man's child all your life only for the biological father to come claiming them at a later time.

All this question just implies that when a man does not trust his wife or there is a misunderstanding about affairs, to prove the woman guilty or not guilty will require her to go for a DNA test. This will confirm if she is free of the charges against her by her husband. If the results is positive then she is guilty of the charges, but if she is not guilty them she will face the consequences of betrayal. I know the aspect of how the woman will feel, can only happens when the woman is not guilty. But if she is guilty them she has nothing to fell about Rather she will beg for forgiveness. But however this DNA is very expensive to practice and can only be used in the case of distrust but when there is trust there is no need.

[dezoel]

The real question is, if you have doubts about your wife having a kid with someone else, then why is she is even your wife? Think about it, I am not saying it never happens, of course it does happen, but that's not the point.

Even in a case where a husband trusts the wife, and then turns out it's someone else's baby, that dude didn't distrusted the wife. So in this case, the question is, if you think there is even a slight chance that baby could be someone else's, then why the hell did you stay for that long? You shouldn't be married to begin with.

She is still your wife because you still love her. But some events could bring doubts that can be cleared by a DNA test.

I have been watching some programs about paternity tests. It has been a good experience because you would see different cases. These programs have exposed me to the tricks of some women. Some cases will give you reasons not to trust anyone. Anyone who feels that their partner is unfaithful should get a DNA test because some women can be cunning.

[7juju]

**When should a man demand a DNA test?

Demand DNA test from who? As the Man if you feel your child or one of your children doesn't belong to you, you can quietly go do a DNA test without anyone knowing about it. Demanding a DNA test from your spouse is going to make things complicated. If any of my child doesn't look like me I will run DNA test of that child if I have the money. Some will say they can look like their mother that's true but I have to be sure that it is mine.

**Should it really become part of a husbands budget on every child delivery?

It can't be on every child, there some children that looks exactly like their father, those ones there's no need of running a DNA test on them.

**What do you really think about running a DNA as a man or as a woman?

DNA test is very important when there's a track record of your wife cheating. As a man you have to be sure that the children you are raising are yours. I am a strong supporter of DNA test.

[Bitcoin.com97]

My own idea sha , I think DNA should be a compulsory thing to do even if the healthcare service want to add it to their bill, because the rate at which men are taking responsibility for what is not there own , I have seen a story where a man three kids belong to his wife’s ex , sometime I think men should carry out the test without involving there wives, especially first child , most women not all are fun of having multiple sex partner when they have a serious date , and if a long the line pregnancy occur the serious date is usually responsible but deep down they really can’t tell who the father is , I heard a story where a girl had a boyfriend and still dating a married man , she sleeps with both without protection, the boyfriend had no idea she is seeing another man but the married knows she has a boyfriend, along the line she missed her period and she wanted to terminate the pregnancy but it didn’t work out , because she is not sure if it belongs to the married man or her boyfriend, but her boyfriend proceeded to marry her so they don’t have a child out of wedlock, I believe till now it still hunt her , she actually don’t know who owns the child between the both men , to me DNA is a most do , weather I trust you or not .

[HajiBagi]

I believe a husband should take a DNA test when there is the minimum of doubt about faithfulness of his wife, of whether the child in question shows some physical characteristics which do not coincide with the genes of the husband, like different skin color, different eye color, hair color, etc.
There are women who get very offended by having their husbands asking for those kind of tests, which is understandable, since it is an indirect accusation of infidelity.

Anyways, a husband (depending on the jurisdiction) could carry out those tests in secret and figure out whether their kid is actually his. Though, morality about taking a secret DNA test could be questioned.

Running a DNA test is not a bad idea but why are you doing it? Running DNA can ruin a good family because it will make your wife that believe in you to start feeling that you don’t love her, I know that every man is scared of taking responsibility of another man child but when you and your wife love each other you will never think of doing a DNA test, trust issue is what makes some people of doing it or when the relationship between a husband and wife is totally broken.

I don’t know about other people but for me I think DNA test is a wasting of time when you are your wife is not having any problem, what make people do DNA test most is when a girl lied that she is pregnant and the man did not believe the baby is his, as far as I know the woman I get married to and i have never seen her cheating on me or doubt her before, i will never think of doing DNA test.
