My response:

What advice are you looking for? If the child is yours, she's entitled to child support. The amount will be within your States' Guidelines, which is dependant upon your income and her income.

In what State is this happening?

The courts could also look at the fact that you were aware you had the child for 12 years and never attempted to support him/her. It is a two way street.

even though alot of times she refused to except my help because her 2nd 3rd or 4th husband didnt want it

To stop a long thread developing, it is irrelevant. The child has not reached the age of majority so you are liable at anytime to be taken to court and ordered to pay child support. You can not get out of this, all you can do is get an attorney and ensure that you are not ordered to pay to much and that all guidelines are followed.

You will be liable from the date she files the papers, not when it is ordered so start saving your money now. In many ways, you are lucky as you 'got away with it' for the last 12 years. You only have another 6/7 to go.
