How do you establish paternity without the father? |
Uh... you don't. The only way paternity can be established or denied is by comparing the offspring to the parent. If there's a DNA match, you win the prize. If you don't have a parent, there's nothing to compare to.
In other words, you can't just sample the offspring's blood and then say, "Whoops! Looks like ol' Ed's got another mouth to feed...." You need Ed.
