## Opinion text

POPOVICH, Judge,
concurring:
I agree with the result reached by the majority today. As this writer has stated previously in Williams v. Wolfe, 297 Pa.Super. 270 , 443 A.2d 831 (1982) (Popovich, J. Concurring Statement), no statute of limitations constitutionally can preclude a child from asserting parenthood during his minority.
