Lets make sure the term "deadbeat" is used correctly here.

Thanks, Dr. Webster.
How about the word "loser" then? That better?
A guy who knows he has a kid and refuses to even send a check is a "loser".
If I meet a woman today, tell her I don't want kids, get her pregnant, and then claim no responsibility for that kid, I'm a loser.
If I tell her to get an abortion and that I want no responsibility and follow up on that promise, I'm still a loser.
Maybe you didn't want the kid, you hate his mom, you turned Coke to Pepsi... it's your kid and he/she is out there. If you don't make even the minimum contribution to raising your own children, you are a loser.
