convincing evidence to have committed an act of non-consensual sexual penetration for his conduct in fathering that child.

The child's mother or guardian may decline support and maintenance obligations from the father.
    (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the father described in subsection (a) of this Section is not entitled to any inheritance or other rights from the child without the consent of the child's mother or guardian.
