You agreed to paternity without being genetically tested and you will not insist on genetic testing in the future.
Yes, you claim parentage. It is your child. And if you were married and your wife had another guy’s baby you would also be responsible.

Doing A Hair Test For Paternity
By Judy Wellsworth
In order to do a hair test for paternity, you need to have hair that still has the roots and follicles still attached. This means, taking strands from a brush will not work, you need to pull the hair from your head and look to make sure the hair follicles and roots come attached to the sample. In most cases of a paternity test, three to four strands of hair require submitting in order to do the DNA testing.
Hair test for paternity costs less than any other DNA testing and is just as reliable as any other form of testing. Genetic DNA paternity testing allows courts and individuals to confirm paternity of a child and the father or mother. These tests do hold up in court and do provide for accurate results. Most people use a clinical facility, but some receive a home test kit in the mail and send the sample out for testing.
