I live in Washington and have spoke to a family law office and was told that I can name who will get my kids if I should die but I also need to say why. I need to list who can't have my kids and again why. The judge is more apt to listen to your request if you have good reasons why the child shouldn't go to FOB. As for me I really have no worries because my girls FOB has not seen or been involved with my girls in over 10 years. Not even a birthday card. The longer they go without seeing them the better. Shoot they even look at if they have paid any support for the child, on their own without DCS making them by taking money out of their check. They will also look at the fact that he didn't sign a affidavit of paternity. She is 4 months old now and they will wonder if he wanted her so bad then why didn't he stand up and take action to become her legal father. My oldest daughters dad didn't find out about her until she was a month away from being 8 and here the courts won't allow him rights to his own daughter because 1. I had got married 10 days before she was born and said that my EX husband was her legal father and 2. He waited too long after he found out via a dna test that he was her dad to try and get any rights. Oh you have to love our state. I do think it's messed up that they won't allow my daughters dad to be on her BC so she can get on his medical (he is in the army) and leaves a man that hates her on her BC!!! Anyways good luck in getting this sorted out and I'd say get it done asap!!!
