“She’s been fobbing me off for a few days now so in the end I told her, calmly, that I’m not signing the birth certificate until we change the name back to what we agreed,” he wrote.

“This caused a bit of a row with her and she’s now refusing to talk to me until I sign the certificate and agree to the name.”
