Upon making the final decision to return the child to his mother and have her pursue his biological father,
My own father lied to get guardianship of the child and made long strides to receive child support.
There is no way I can support legally requiring someone to pay child support for someone else's child.
I agree with that but the guy should have had enough heart IMO to want to contribute if the babies stand in Grandfather took in his two year old stepson who has no one else to go to.

Because this was his Grandchild for two years! he was not willing to say, no one loves you no one wants you kid!Two years of a baby to toddler is a major time of attachment watching the baby grow, so they should all kick him to the curb!

Vehemently disagree. Forced to pay for someone else's lie?
The biological father should be forced to repay all the money this man shelled out to babysit his kid.
And mommie dearest should be going to jail for fraud. Theft by deception.

He was probably heartbroken and reacted in a selfish manner to block out all emotions.
I know the baby should have come first before any decision were made, but we are obviously reading about a very immature, selfish couple here. I just hope the child grows feeling loved.

If you read my post you will see I said he should not have to pay...it is not his child. The court stuff going on 5 years the kid is 7 and his Stepdad clearly hates him for simply not being his...how sad.
They don't have a biological father to get $$ from, the boy deserves to be loved for himself regardless of who his Father may be. Why should he be blamed and thrown away like a piece of garbage.

Selfish???? What part of "it's not his kid" don't you understand? You want to force this man to pay for someone else's lie/mistake?
You expect this man to raise someone else's child out of the goodness of his heart? He has no option to say no?

The grandfather kept the child from returning to the mother so she could find his biological dad. The courts and grand father made it very clear the child has no rights to know his biological family. The mother wanted the child and was doing as the court says but the judge wouldn't turn over custody and actually put impossible stipulations on all parties but the grand father to get the child. The judge stripped all the natural rights the parents had and gave the grand father the right to keep the child from all biological relatives.

That's not legal, they can't legally do it unless the grandfather has adopted the child....there's something more here that is not been said, as it doesn't make sense.
Have you read about this case anywhere else but FB?

Legal doesn't matter to courts if you are a judge. You wouldn't believe the things I have seen judges get away with.
