I think in this case you shouldn't confuse parental rights and parental duties. Such rapists should have only duties but not rights. To pay alimony is a duty of a parent, to see the child is a right. That's simple. Of course, there might be complicated situations like a father was erroneously accused of raping the mother, in this case he should have rights to decide whether he would require from the mother to return him all the alimony he had paid or not. As for visiting the child in this case - the father should have rights to request it, but the final decision should be made by judge according interests of the child.
