I am guessing that my youngest son’s grandparents are no longer willing to pay their rapist’s child support for him, especially because nothing will happen to their rapist son if payments cease. But to be honest, I’m surprised that it has taken them this long to even cease paying it in the first place. Why was this not something that they looked into years ago? How did he manage to get away with not telling them the truth about my (“our”) son’s conception for so long? These are the things that I want answers to. I don’t even care to know what must have gone through his head that allowed him to rationalize rape in the first place. That is beyond water under the bridge at this point, and I refuse to forgive him or permit him to contact either one of us although the forgiveness and potential contact with paternal family members of my son’s remains in flux.

So far it seems that child support is being withheld upon realization that Bub’s father conceived him by rape.
