I think only if it comes down to fight over the father paying child support then the courts can order a dna test to prove who the father is.But since your not asking for child support then no one else can make you do want you don't want to. If i was you i would go and see a lawyer and get some advice. Then i think you need to sit down with his mother and have a serious talk. Tell her that this is your baby and her son is the one in the wrong by refusing to have anything to do with it. Let her know that she has no rights to tell you what to do and if she wants to ever have anything to do with her grandchild in the future she better leave you alone and let you get on with your life. Goodluck try not to alienate her as she could be a helpful person to have on your side in the future.

 Im not quite sure weather it is or not. But i dont thinkg you can be forced. though i do think its nice that even though your ex doesnt wnat anything to do with it im sure his parents would like to see there grand child. You dont have to have the child support but think of your child and when it grows up you dont want you child to find out that you didnt let his/her grand parents see him/her. It's up to your really just make sure you have thought it through. Good Luck.
