My stepdaughter 14, is not my husbands bio-child, he found out after birth, and felt guilty this baby would not have a dad. The child, now 14, lives w/her mom. The mother receives hefty support from the absent one night stand biodad, who wants nothing since the time of knowing of the child. This child was born and grew up believing my husband was her father, she found out 3yrs ago he was not. She was upset, but now has adjusted. We want a say in her raising, w/out the support oblig-we do not want $-ties to the mom. My husb. was only with the mom for 3yrs, only lived w/them for a brief period during the newborn time (3-6months) The biomom will never give up childsupport, I think she would give us some rights, especially if something were to happen to her, she would want my husb to have her.
