I would suggest someone needs to look at the Philippines Family Law.
Whatever the case, It does seem that the 'father' (needs to be proven) does have a legal and moral right to contact and visitation rights. The way forward needs careful consideration (as always in Phils)

Just my two centavos worth
I agree Terpe, and that would definitely be the case in the UK. However, in the UK the Father would also be forced to pay his dues or face proceedings if he didn't. I've suggested that my friend speaks to a Filipino lawyer for clarification of the legal position over there.
