    Maybe, maybe not. If you have not been declared the legal father you have no rights. But you may be able to gain those rights by proving you have acted as the boy's father for all these years.

    We can't give a definitive answer since laws vary by area and you didn't provide that info. My best suggestion is to con tact a Family Law attorney in your area who can advise you about local laws.
