A child should have the true name of his parents on his birth record

Not just the rich - I have met two families where adopted children were forever treated as semi-welcome (at best strangers), and where the products of assisted reproduction considered of question humanity. Both families utterly poor and ignorant as rocks.

But in such cases there is actually no inheritance to speak of, and no money for paternity tests.

Wow, that’s terrible.

In my extended family we’ve had several couples that have had to go through infertility treatment, sometimes with donor egg or sperm. Thank goodness that in every case, the resulting child has been fully accepted into the family.
