They have no court standing
No. If the mother has full custody, the father must pay child support to the mother who is supporting the child. Put simply, the non-custodial parent pays child support to the parent who does have custody.If the custodial parent makes significantly more than the non-custodial parent, the court will not order the non-custodial parent to pay the custodial parent.

can try, but they would not have standing
The same under all possible scenarios. Unless specifically stated in a custody decree, they get the child. In Kansas, if the children are under five and the mother is married to the man, and together, the maternal grandparents have first right to take the children under the tender years doctrine. Unless specified, no divorced or single father has a presumed right to the children when a custodial mother dies.
