I'm sorry if I am not posting this in the correct place. I am new to all of this. I am a divorced Father of 2. Parenting plan is in affect, I pay child support, provide insurance, have visitation, etc. It has come to my attention in the last 2 weeks that the son I have raised for 17 years may not be mine. Yes, my name is on the birth certificate. His Mother and I dated briefly, I went into the service, when I returned home on leave she told me he was my son. I was 19 at the time, young and stupid. I believed her. She is now threatening me with more child support which I don't care to pay more if I am required to, that isn't the issue. My issue is, can I have a DNA test done and if proven I am not the Father can she force me to give up my rights? I am in Tennessee. Thank You.
