What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? SC
I would like to legally disown my child. I have given this alot of thought and am not doin it on a whim. I want to make sure when I die that my son gets nothing from me. This is not revenge. My son got more than his share from me while I still live. He is 35 and I have paid for him his entire life. I know it is mostly my fault the way he turned out. But he was my son and I loved him with all my heart. I have supported him and his numerous girlfriends and 3 wives and his divorces and helped him gain custody of my 2 grandsons. I don't know for a fact they are actually my grands, but I don't care, I love them and they are mine, I don't care about their DNA. I have bought his cars, paid his ins., took his children to doctors and bought their diapers. I paid his rent and paid his bail.
Five yrs ago after attemping suicide because of his wife's cheating, he accepted the cheating and returned to her. They cut myself and his sister out of the kids life. After a yr of trying to see my grands, I took him to court for visitation. The judge strongly encourged him to allow it. He told the judge he had no problem with me seeing them, but outside of court told me I would never see them again. Since then my son has been arrested for theft. His wife has been arrested for crimminal domestic violence and the last baby, last year, tested positive for drugs at birth. CPS has been to their home numerous times. They move around alot to lose them. Family members report seeing the children dirty and unkept. I am getting older and know the moment I die he will swoop in to take whatever he wants. I don't have alot, but what I have is for my grands. What can I do?
