Your step father's father died and you think you are entitled to something? Did your step father adopt you? If he didn't adopt you, there is probably no entitlement, unless you were specifically named in the will.
The executor of the estate, who may be your step father, will have to show the courts that he distributed the estate as the will specified. If you are in the will, you are entitled to be able to read it. If you are not in the will, and were not adopted, they don't have to share it with you.

If property is left to the fathers children undivided can one of the children be disinhereted?
Your question is somewhat unclear. If you question whether one of the children can be left out after the parent has died the answer is no. If the father left the property to all his children then each has an undivided interest in the property and no child was disinherited. That means each has the right to the use and possession of the property. If the property is sold and there are five children, each will receive one-fifth of the net proceeds.If your question is whether a parent can disinherit a child, the answer is generally yes if the child is an adult. You must check your state laws to determine how a will must be drafted to effectively disinherit an adult child. In some states, if the will is not properly drafted, the court will decide the child was simply forgotten and will then distribute share to that child.Minor children cannot be disinherited.

You have one child for whom you receive child support and another child of a different father. Is your child support affected by your having to care for both children?
Not really. It is based on a percentage of the pay of the parent paying child support and the number of children that are his/hers with the custodial parent.AnswerThe child support you receive for the first child from her father is not affected by your having another child by a different father. The first father is only responsible for supporting his own biological child.
If the custodial parent two children give one of the children back to the father does the father still have to pay child support for the one child that stayed with the mother or are they even?
No, the father has to pay child support for both children. Of course the child that decides to live with him will be treated as he/she were when you were both married, but the child you have will still continue to receive child support by law!

Depends on why you can not afford it, if you are not looking for work etc but child support, visitation and custody are separate issues. You still have rights as their father and can petition for visitation or custody. If the two parents can not afford to provide for their children there is welfare. And your wife can not set just any demands, they have to be reasonable and that is something the judge can decide. The judge will see to what is in the best interest of the children and if one of their parents has lost his job for instance it would not be in their best interest to remove him from their lives.
