If he wasn't informed about the pregnancy in a timely manner and if he would
have willingly taken on the responsiblility had he known, I think it's fair to
say he's a victim in all this too.

I think that something we've been forgetting is that the "deadbeat" might
very well be the victim too.  There is no knowing that he knows there is a
child in the world of his genetic lineage.
