"I would put the money bit aside and think about getting DNA tested to establish the truth... good luck" This OP and if you end up not being the biological father of the kids you have still been the one that has helped raise them and make them into the people they are today and they will see you as there father. It will be hard but just focus on the kids and not the ex wife. | |||

"I received a letter from my ex wife last week telling me that she does not want me to turn up at my twins 21st Birthday party i phoned her to ask why then she dropped a bombshell she told me that i was not the father and told me it was her brothers best mate who is the father i feel gutted!only for me having my partner here i just don't know what i would do feel so angry and hurt even child maintenance she had of me through the years. " The other bloke may have been the biological father but not their real father, the man who was around for them as they were growing up. I would also think at 21 your children should be able to decide who attends their birthday party. You should attend or speak with them about the mother not wanting you to attend or they will think you are rejecting them. | |||

"In addition to other suggestions, maybe you should respond by telling her that you are going to report her for fraud in respect of falsely claiming child support from you if you are indeed not the father. The prospect of facing criminal investigation and possible prosecution might, just might, make her reconsider her vile and abusive comments. She should perhaps also consider that (regardless of whether what she says is true or not) that the twins have grown up with you as their dad and preventing you from being at an important event in their lives is abusive towards them. " I am not a lawyer so my comment is not worth much, but generally the courts will act in the interests of the children and as far as op and the children are concerned he is the father. | |||

"I am not a lawyer so my comment is not worth much, but generally the courts will act in the interests of the children and as far as op and the children are concerned he is the father. " I was thinking more along the lines of reporting the matter to the Police. After all, OP has his exes claim in writing - Evidence. Totally agree with your comments in respect of the Courts acting in the best interests of children (I have a good deal of experience of the family courts) - but technically, at 21 years of age, they are no longer children - and as such would be of no interest to the family courts. Fraudulently claiming child support, however, is a criminal offence. | |||

"Re who is their Dad - well you brought them up, so you are whatever a DNA test says. Like others have said, at 21, surely they can say who goes to their party. Too many parents use their parents as pawns in a game of tit for tat and forget that they are the most important thing in this. It is their birthday not hers! I would speak to them directly and see if they want you there. If they do, then decision made. " | |||

"I do hope the twins are ok. If they have just found out as well then my first thought would be for them ... not the money!!!!!" Absolutely agree. My comments were intended only as an aside. I'm fairly sure that OP's ex-wife is just saying these things to be nasty. Seems to me that she is on a power trip, wrongly believing she is in a position to dictate such things. My thoughts were simply aimed at restoring some balance in that regard. | |||

Any old boy can be a father but it takes more to be a daddy. | |||

" I think that if I received such a letter I would be going to see my lawyers and instructing them to initiating proceedings against my ex for fraud. After all if what she has said is true she knowingly lied about the paternity of the children both on the birth certificate, on the divorce papers and to the CSA. And I would not be letting her get away with that! | |||

"Always the man that is there, biological sometimes means nothing, if they dont partake. Her" my lo father isnt involved in her life, he hasnt seen or asked after her in months and didnt send her anything for her birthday. In fact even when we were together he wasn't very invested in her. Id LOVE for her to have a dad like your kids have xx | |||

"They are yours,I have two adopted children and no matter who fathered and brought them into the world they are mine!" And just as much as they are yours don't forget that you are theirs. There is a possibility that your ex hasn't told them so tread carefully. | |||

"Obviously none of us know the history behind all this and, as with all things, we are getting one side of a story. What is your relationship like with yoir children OP, do you maintain regular contact? How do they get on with your new partner? Have you attended other events in your twins' lives since the split from their mother, is there animosity between you and your children. Could the twins' have asked their mother to write requesting you dont attend? I wouldnt imagine they would ask their mother to come up with such an obscure reason to stop you going, that just seems a very hurtful comment on her part to upset you. Maybe it could be true, thats an issue you will have to take up legally. But think about the relationships you have with your ex, your kids, your partner. If you have a good relationship with your children, then speak to them directly about attendance to their party. Take into account the amount of animosity between you and your ex, you dont want to attend and have all this to kick off at the party do you? " Good intelligent post as usual. | |||
