I want to say that I hope for the best in your endeavors to raise your daughter. I empathize because you may not have wanted kids at this time in your life (as had been the case for my two cousins who had children), but hang in there. Parenthood is full of pain and joy. Focus on the joy more than the pain. And if Kaneda doesn't want to involve himself at all in your daughter's life, as the others have basically said, fuck him.
