    If he wants to be in the babys life, he has legal means to do that. Have him see an attorney for one of those half-hour free consultations. If necessary, most attorneys will take payments. DO NOT walk away if you want to be a parent to that baby. The courts will certainly make him pay child support no matter what he does, and the girlfriend/mom will be old enough to do whatever she wants very soon.

    Congratulations on your baby! I had two boys and wouldn't change a thing! I envy you the magical ride as a mother. It is the best.
    Well, Grandma is pretty cool too!

    I dont know about legal stuff, but I think he should make sure he get to see the child when it is born, even if he doesnt see the mother of the child (because she is a minor, her parents can kind of control that) he should still show his child and the girls family that he wants to be in the baby's life. Maybe with time they will see that he really deserves to be able to spend time with the child, maybe not, but if he has ANY desire to be a part of his kid's life, HE NEEDS TO BE THERE.

    He should use the court system to set up child support and visitation schedules. That way, the girls parents can not keep him from the child.
