There is a question of his paternity but Iam not sure how to go about having this checked or if after 9 years of thinking he is the biological father, it would make any difference to a court now. Can his parental rights be ended if paternity shows he is not the father, even after all these years> and if not, can my husband even adopt our son with the father in the picture? There are several circumstances that are very bad for our son to be around>drugs etc. Anyone who has some options for me, please email me.

My son hasn't seen his father in 2 years, but he pays child support through the DA's office. I'm looking to have my husband adopt my son. Does your ex see your son?
