If I am pregenant can my child's step father and mother not allow him to see me and his child.

How old is he and does he live under their roof and, therefore, is he under their control?

Will you be filing for custody and support?

How old are you?

I am 17 and he is 16. I want him to be able to see his child but I don't think his parents want him to see me or the child. Is there a law against them not letting him see his child

As long as he is a minor and under their roof they control what he does and where he does it. If he does not comply with their rules he could find himself a person in need of supervision - the words vary from State to State - and in a youth detention home.

At this point his parents control him - unless, of course, he can find employment (sufficient to support himself) and a place to live by himself (not with friends/family). He could then attempt to have himself declared emancipated and then he's on his own.

I have no idea why the parents are taking this stance other than they are probably very, very upset that their 16-year-old is about to be a father and I'm sure they blame you (for whatever reason) for not using protection.

I am not holding him blameless. I am simply trying to explain what they very well may think.

Another problem may be that they are in flat denial of the whole situation. They may not want anything to do with the child until a DNA test proves different. How do your parents feel about this situation ?

He will be 17 before the baby is born and I will be 18. Does that change anything? And both his and my parents don't know. They are just not allowing him to see me because they claim he is lazy and does nothing around the house when he is the one who cleans everything in the house.

Well, you may as well break the news to them sooner rather than later because it won't get any better. Of course, they can keep him from seeing you they are his parents and he is a minor. Just like you will soon have a child to raise... parenting isn't easy. I'm sure it is more than him being their slave and they are just under appreciative of his labor.
