TRUE, that does make logical sense. Both parents have equal 'claim' to the kid, if one forfeits that claim by choice, like taking a name off a title, the father should then be the sole parent, all shared rights relinquished by one partner are gained by the other.
I'm an adopted kid, and as I was told, before I could be family-adopted, my bio dad had to legally sign away all rights of any kind to me, only then were my grandparents able to legally adopt me. Of course, had there been a different 'choice' made, he wouldn't have been consulted at all, which is very wrong. Not all parties get a say, I know if I had been asked, I'd have voted to live, and being alive now I reaffirm that vote.

Realism. Taking the world as it IS, not how we WANT it. That's pragmatism. Doing whatever actually works, no matter how stupid or bad or counterintuitive it seems to people. The Wright brothers were pragmatists, what's the easiest, most low-effort way to fly, well that's this, ok let's try that! But, that means ignoring orthodoxy! Do it anyway, and win.
The book definition agrees with me: "A practical, matter-of-fact way of approaching or assessing situations or of solving problems."
If you told me someone is pragmatic, by default I assume they're also very PRACTICAL, practicality being a hallmark of pragmatism.
