Man sues on finding girl not his daughter
4 minutes ago
MELBOURNE (Reuters) - An Australian man is suing his former partner to recover A$18,247 (6,400 pounds) he spent on a little girl, for things such as presents, zoo trips and meals, after discovering she was not his daughter.
"I want it all back - every cent for every toy, every blanket, every bit of food," the man, who can't be identified for legal reasons, said.
"I wouldn't have spent all that money had I known five years ago she wasn't my kid," he was quoted saying by the Herald-Sun Newspaper on Friday.
The claims include take-away McDonald's food over five years, four visits to an amusement park, three Barbie dolls, a Pooh Bear play tent, a day of skating, and child support payments.
The Herald-Sun said the man took the action after DNA tests found the girl was not his daughter.
The girl's mother said she was willing to repay the child support payments but that she should not have to pay back anything else.
"She had a good time with him that's the main thing," she was quoted as saying. "I don't think he should carry on too much about it. He should treat it like doing something nice with a friend."
