I'm sure I know where you'll justify that arguement on moral grounds. . . but I'd like to hear it anyway.
What about a woman with kids whose husband dies? Can the courts make a stranger pay some expenses? That would be in the best intrests of the kids?

Ok that may be a little extreme, but how about saddling a close family friend with child support? What if he is really close to the kids? You hear people saying all the time..." Mr. Johnson was like a father to me when I was growing up" Legally it seems if its in the best interest of the kids, he could be paying child support?
