This is really crazy. Always always always get things in writing. With witnesses, if you can. An unwitnessed verbal contract really isn't going to hold much weight anywhere. If he is expected to pay child support then he definitely deserves visitation rights. I also think the state should periodically check up on this woman to make sure she's actually spending the $1500/month on the kids and not herself.

Also, isn't IVF rather expensive? Did this guy pay to have her impregnated? If so, then he's a moron that got what was coming to him. If she paid for the IVF, then I'd say she doesn't need $1500/month if she can afford the treatment. Also, why this guy? Why not an anonymous sperm donor? Something's kind of weird here.

ETA: I find it terribly irresponsible that she wanted to conceive children w/o a father figure present. She obviously (at first) didn't intend for the guy to be part of their lives.
