...that she said, "Joseph would have been stoned to death for abandoning his wife and child", when he found out, there was no child, she was pregnant.
Of course, folks like AH like to think that women are ENTITLED to certain things and that is the way it has always been.

[quote]If someone lied to me about a child the last thing I would be doing is signing myself up for financial obligation. Doesn't mean I wouldn't try to maintain a relationship with the child....but giving her a chunk of my income? Hell no. Shouldn't he be allowed to keep his money so he has a chance one day to have children of his own and give them a decent life. Not his fault his ex is a bleep, not the childs fault either. But he has shared enough of the burden and shouldn't have to do anymore. [/quote]
Exactly, but some will look for free unearned money anywhere they can. I like your point about having children of his own. His OWN. It's hard to support someone elses child as well as moving on and having your own kid(s).
I still dont think he even has a moral obligation to the child. He really doesnt owe the kid anything. What he chooses to do is what he chooses. It would be nice to help out in some capacity but there is no moral obligation in this one.

[quote]It is my fault not to include more details when I posted the last message.
I was defrauded by both my wife and the child. I have just found out that my wife has been in contact with the man (my daughter's biological father who is not USA) all these years. The child knows about this and did not tell me!!! My love for the child is completely gone. My wife wants to file for divorce because she wants to marry this man and sponsor him to immigrate to USA. They are going to "re-unite" in a complete family and while I will be left with a completely broken heart.
Ethically I am pretty sure that I should not pay child support. My question is that if this case goes to court, is my wife's request for child support going to be rejected by the judge for sure? I am a low-income earner and I can not afford to hire a lawyer for my divorce in court. So any legal advice is very helpful. [/quote]
I suspected your love for the kid was gone. It's natural.
Nothing is for sure in court though. You might be saddled with another 13 years of support. You need a good lawyer to get you out of this.

>>>>>>>>>>> No , CS can be ordered until paternity is established/disestablished . Washington State has awesome online resources for family law and court forms , they can be found here :

"My question is that if this case goes to court, is my wife's request for child support going to be rejected by the judge for sure? "
I don't know for sure, but I can damn sure hope so. I'm very sorry your wife is such a Grade A Biotch. I hope that this situation doesn't poison your attitude towards women in general. I may be overly optimistic, but I would like to believe that the majority of women out there are not such dishonest, manipulative and morally bankrupt pieces of dog poo. Lying about the paternity is reprehensible enough, but to drag the daughter into the lie....
Good Luck to you -- and find one HECK of a lawyer.

I was researching paternity the other day. In some states you only have three years to contest paternity. I'm no attorney...but you may be screwed.

...is from the time that you become reasonably aware of the situation. Of course, I could be wrong.

http://www.law.msu.edu/amicus/wi_2003-04/paternity.html
Michigan is among a growing number of states seeking to enact a paternity fraud law. About 12 states currently have some form of paternity fraud law that permits a man who learns he is not the child’s biological father to vacate an order that previously established his legal parenthood. Several of these, like Michigan’s proposed statute, are open-ended, such that the man can file his motion to vacate his paternity at any time—for example, five, 10 or 15 years after the child’s birth. Still others have a stricter statute of limitations of two to three years.
He needs to get a really good attorney.
