There's a fair number who don't know who the father is, father gave up rights, woman went to a sperm bank, or the woman didn't put him on the birth certificate at all. The last one seems to be becoming more common to get more welfare, maybe? I know of at least three women that have done it for welfare and free healthcare. One case was done, I think, so the father wouldn't have to pay child support if something happened. Well, they split and now he has no legal right over the child. I'm sure he could probably try to pursue rights through a DNA test, but he won't.
It'll also depend on how they move forward with it. Parental consent can be interpreted as one or both parents.
But that's also part of my point. If it's so rare to get both parents approval, why not just try to make it outright illegal, with or without the parent(s)? No one, not even the parents, should have the authority to mutilate their child. It's just the slow march further left. Doing half measures and compromises so that people think something is being done when really they're just normalizing what would have been unthinkable a few years before. It's what's gotten us here.
