For the average person, if you take the typical scenario where the wife gets the house and the kids, I'm not sure a prenup is going to change any of that, i.e. I'm not sure a prenup can have any effect over custody and child support issues because the obligation is to the child (who is not a party to the contract) and not the wife. Regardless, best to bring the topic up with his girlfriend well before proposing to feel her out on the topic, as well as consulting a lawyer in advance to find out if it is even worthwhile.
