    Default My 16 Year Old Stepdaughter

    My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Kentucky

    My 16 year old stepdaughter is 5 weeks pregnant by her 18 year old boyfriend. My husbands parents were granted custody of them and neither parent had any visitations. She got pregnant while at her mom's. Will the grandparents lose custody of them due to this?

    Lots of kids get pregnant. How is this the grandparent's fault?

    The mother has no visitations and isn't suppose to have contact with the kids. The grandparents were going against the court order and letting them go to their mothers knowing that the 16 year olds boyfriend is living there. Also will my husband still have to pay the state child support for her and her pregnant?

    As long as she's a minor, your husband must pay child support.

    Your husband won't be responsible for paying for the daughter's child. The father of her baby will have to pay child support for this new child. Also, if the daughter marries her boyfriend, which is allowed with parental consent in most states, then your husband would no longer be considered financially responsible for the daughter. Her husband would now have the legal responsibility to provide financially for her and they baby.

    If the grandparents allowed the girl to violate a court order, then they most certainly could lose custody. If your husbad is willing to provide fulltime care for her, then he can petition the court for custody.
