my rights as a fathere

Dear all, my xwtb is due to give birth to my child on the 22nd June 2009. At that time we will still be married therefor, I will have PR of my child.

We no longer live with each other and communication has broken down. She has refused mediation to discuss important matters before the child is born.

My question is this: Where do I legally stand in terms of my input in naming the child, which school it might go to in the future etc.... I would like to know what she can or maybe cant do without consulting me first. I want very much to be part of this child's life and have frequent contact to bond with him/her also but she is hoping that I will just fade away which will never happen.

Can anyone help me please

Thanks

Regardless of whether or not you are married, if you are named as the father on the birth certificate you have parental responsibilities.
