The issue isn't really age; it's whether the child is mentally and emotionally able to deal with it and whether it's safe to meet their biological parent(s)

Can a non biological parent get visitation?

I would contact a local attorney and explain your situation. In some cases, you may be able to sue the biological father for non-support. Just remember, if he didn't have the money to pay child support, more than likely it will just be a moral victory. However, if the father has a business, home, or other assets, you may be able to have a lien placed against the bio father. My advice for you is to keep accurate records and when the child turns 18, have the child petition the court to have the child support paid to them. There is no statute of limitations on child support payments and states have agreements to cooperate in finding and collecting support. Good luck, BW
