No but it is the decent, ethical and right thing to do. Just put yourself in their position. I'm sure you would like to know too. And they are entitled to their inheritance.

It depends on the laws of the specific jurisdiction, but in many cases, parents are only legally obligated to pay child support until the child reaches the age of majority, which is typically 18.

When did Washington revise the law which no longer required step parents to pay child support after they had divorced the biological parent?

There is no such law. The only way a step parent could be obligated for child support in such a situation is if he or she had legally adopted the minor child/children. The Washington State law applies only to a step parent paying support until the final dissolution decree is rendered. Once the divorce is final, the step parent has no further legal financial obligation to non biological children.


Can your exhusband sue you for money he has given your adult children after the divorce?

No. If he chose to give your adult children money, then that was his decision and you are not obligated to reimburse him for any of it. And to take it a bit further, even if the children were still minor after the divorce and he chose to give them money, you would not be obligated to reimburse him for that, either. Child support money goes to the custodial parent for support of the children, not directly to the children.
