My nephew's. Honestly, it's no different. My sister doesn't qualify for benefits. They don't tease him at school about not having a father, I think everyone's pretty indifferent these days.

It depends on the circumstances for this blank entry. We have a blank, but the father is actually present. We haven't felt any impact in 7 years. Kindergartens, schools, hospitals — all with the father involved, no problems. Within the family, even more so.

If the blank isn't just a formality but a reality, then there are nuances here too. It can make life easier in many ways: trips abroad, benefits (zero income rule), in some regions additional benefits (I've read about them somewhere, but we don't have them), etc.
Within the family — everything will depend on you. A male role model is needed no matter what; it could be a grandfather, an uncle, or even your friend. Anyway, it all comes down to the beginning. The reason for the blank.

It doesn't affect anything, it doesn't make life much easier either, and I don't understand how it could be a problem for the baby?

No. My father is listed for all of us.
My brother had a dash... my mom filed for paternity recognition and child support.

There are no problems.
It makes a mother's life easier when traveling abroad with her child on vacation — you don't need to get consent from the other parent.
It doesn't affect the child in any way. Kids aren't aware of these documents or what's written in them. They believe all information from their mother as the absolute truth. Whatever mom says is all they need to know. It doesn't concern them otherwise. That's just how kids are.

Legally, it makes things easier. You don't need to get consent for the child to travel, and there's no risk of the father forbidding international travel. So, if there's no contact and it's not needed, a dash can be convenient in certain situations.

My sister is having a period. It doesn't ease anything and doesn't affect her in any way. She's already 16, and her mom hasn't received any benefits for her except from work.

It didn't affect anything, as long as there's no lying involved.

I had this with my first. It didn't hurt at all, it was actually a plus because you don't have to ask anyone about anything.

My older daughter has a dash, it didn't and doesn't affect her at all.
