Because he is getting screwed over even if he is too stupid to know it.Since there is no indication that this bothers him one bit, why does it bother you?Other than this case represents an example of others that are similar, I could care less whether or not this man is attempting to repudiate his daughter. When all is said and done, he will pay a very large sum of money for kid that is not even his.
Most laws seem to be designed to discourage bad behavior and not to encourage any type of behavior. Take for example laws that demand a fine for speeding in traffic. That is a negative reinforcement to prevent a negative behavior. What you won't ever see is the police going around and giving everyone a bonus check if they stay within the speed limit.What evidence do you have that the law ENCOURAGED this woman to have another man's child while in marriage to this fellow?If we have laws to tell us not to break into ATM's why do we have laws to encourage women to have other men's kids in a marriage?
So to answer your question I see no evidence the law encouraged this woman to engage in bad behavior. What is important though is that the law did nothing to discourage bad behavior to take place. And if people are allowed to do things that are bad for society without consequence, they will do it.
