baby fathers

Children's biological sires

Baby fathers is the plural of baby father, a term originating in Caribbean English for a man who has fathered a child but isn't married to or living with the mother.

The relationship is defined by the child rather than by commitment: She has three kids by two different baby fathers.

The term often carries connotations of absent or uninvolved fatherhood.
