I agree with Matthew - call the Union.
Too often, actors are under the impression that they can waive the rules about a myriad of things.

Find a replacement, male or female, immediately.
Then tell the father in question that others have volunteered and you are going to start a rotation.
You will call him when you need him next.

What does that little voice of reason say to you?
If you have any misgivings, walk away.
IMHO - this could be trouble...

Call the Equity office.
I love all the helpful opinions but to be absolutely certain about the permission or lack thereof in these days, one should call your nearest Equity office...

Your first instinct is right on the mark.
Call Equity.
They are paid to know the answers.
