Child-support does not necessarily imply any visitation rights, particularly in the rare cases where parenthood isn’t officially established until the child is over 12 or so and gets their own say in those matters.
Although if he had waited with the fatherhood admissions a couple of months until we were over 18 he could have dodged much of the financial liabilities, about half of them actually, if the mother, or other close relatives wait until then to press their claims. Children themselves have between 18 and 21 to make them and the courts will sometimes grant financial compensation even to older individuals in the case of rich guys (or gals, but mostly guys obviously) having dodged their parental responsibilities.
Parents are generally expected to financially support any children they father or mother around here and only the truly indigent can get away with not doing so. That very much doesn’t apply to “daddy” Hades tho.
How is it not there? It is very much there from the pov of my mc. He did the whole uncle sham for years then up and left us and he never once told us that he was our father during the period in my mc’s life that he would have wanted a father. For my mc it’s simply too late for the whole “father” thing now, besides he clearly prefers Aeson, so let them play “happy family” together, my mc doesn’t want any part of it.
I said it feels like we’re the red-headed step-child in comparison to Aeson, it was an imperfect analogy from the start.
Thank you for the luck. You’re not gonna try to kill any of them though!? Not gonna try? Nah, I can’t be negative about my potential. I’m just going to die trying like a boss.
