OP, is there something about this woman that makes her a real standout in your head (unrelated to looks/sex)?

 

Cause thinking about it today, it might just not be worth the hassle.

The money is a small part of it. The fact he is a terrible father and un-involved with his kids is the biggest issue for me. Any man who walks away from his kids and makes no attempt to see them is a POS. No respect for sperm donors like him. How can I like someone I don't respect?

 

 

No one is asking you to be his parent.

 

But if you dont' get a grip on this, you're going to alienate her because that is her flesh and blood.

 

I think you need to reassess being involved with someone who has this kind of drama in her life. If she's not doing the tough love thing with him, it sure isn't your place to do it, either. He's grown--you can't re-raise him.

 

If she wants to see her grandkids, then she needs to reach out to their mother or go through the courts to get visitation. She doesn't need her son to do that. Perhaps you could persuade her to do that and be a better role model to the children than he's being... that's if you're insisting upon staying in her life.

 

I just think you're spoiling for an unnecessary fight.
