Meri Brown has mentioned several times that she would like more biological children but she is unable to. She has been to several doctors, all of which have told her she has "unexplained infertility". She and Kody considered in-vitro fertilization, but decided not to do it.
Meri Brown and Kody Brown are getting a legal divorce. Though Kody Brown is spiritually married to all four of his wives, he only has a marriage license and a legal marriage with Meri, his first wife. Meri decided to pursue a divorce from Kody so that Kody could move forward with the process of adopting the children that his fourth wife, Robyn, brought into the family from her first marriage. Kody could only become the legal father of Dayton, Aurora, and Breanna if he and Robyn were legally married. After Kody and Meri got legally divorced, Kody and Robyn were legally married. The legal status of the marriage does not affect the marriage in the eyes of the Browns' church. Meri and Kody are still married to each other spiritually, which matters more to them. Meri is not leaving the family.
No, only the biological father will be assessed child support.
You cannot adopt a child if the father still has legal rights over that child. The father would have to sign the child over to you. that is the only way you could adopt the child. marriage has nothing to do with it.
The father can legally request custody and/or visitation rights and assert all other parental rights that applied before the dissolution of the marriage until/unless a court rules otherwise. Parental rights can only be terminated voluntarily or permanently by the court they are not affected by either parent remarrying. A new spouse has no legal rights to a child born of a previous marriage or relationship.
The biological parents pay for their child, not the grandparents. Both of you needs to get jobs and should have done so before the child arrived. When you petition the court for child support the father have establish paternity so they know he is the biological father. He can also petition for visitation and custody since being the biological father, that is his right. Just as it is the child's right to both parents. You can not choose that the father will have no contact with his child. That is up to the court. He has rights just like you. And so does your child.
