What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MO
My husband's daughter decided to move in with us 13 months ago. (2 weeks before her 17th birthday). A month after she moved in, we were able to discontinue paying child support to her mother with the help of child support enforcement. We have asked her mother for help with support, but she not only refuses to help, but she also has blocked her daughter's phone number from her phone. She is going to stay living with us and will begin college this fall. It has been very expensive since she moved in with us, as anyone knows, children are very expensive. But we do love her and I am glad she decided to come and live with us. But my question is, what would be our chances of obtaining an order from her mother to be required to pay support to us? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
