Except for the fact that she kept it, and is forcing me to get a lawyer just to have visitation rights, knowing it's not something I can afford. Sometimes I think if I lied about that dumb fucking question, everything would be different and I would have a relationship with my baby.

If it's any consolation, the situation wouldn't be any different if you answered the question differently.
