Yes, he does. It is his child and your grandchild. If he was adult enough to create the child he is old enough to support it and as his parent it is now your problem.

You obigation to pay the child support, if he cannot, is dependent on state laws. In Missouri, the girl can sue both you and her own parents for child support. Also, paying or not, he has no legal rights to the child. To learn how to address the isses he will be facinging, go to Dads House in Yahoo Groups. see links

You must continue to pay child support as long as there is a court order to do so. However, if the child isn't being physically supported by the custodial parent and lives with another guardian, the court may alter the child support order to have payments sent to the new guardian. Contact your local department of Human Services and let them know that the child isn't living with the custodial parent.

No, you have no grounds to sue. You have suffered no damage by the girlfriend's pregnancy. Apparently, your divorce is in the works so you can't use the pregnancy as grounds for divorce.
