Well yes, if you were ordered to pay child support and have not been doing so, you are in arrears and she can go after you for those arrearages. If she had the twins and they are yours, she can also go after you for child support for them.

Your son is almost 18, which means that very shortly it will be 100% his decision whether or not to develope a relationship with you. However, you may have two younger children. Have you no interest in them?

Showing up at her home unannounced would be a MAJOR mistake. DO NOT do that.

Well

Unfortuneately, she can get you on the child support sadly. Which I don't think anyone really feels is fair.

The best thing, if you do want to try and win custody, honestly, would be difficult considering your son will be 18 soon. I would try to contact him if it were me. Try to contact him without the mother knowing. But be very careful, you have no idea how traumatic it might be, or what kind of person his mother has made you out to be?

YOU need to SHUT UP!
YOU don't speak for "anyone" here, and YOU don't know the first thing about family law. YOUR "advice" is LEGALLY AND MORALLY WRONG! :mad: :mad: :mad:
