Why should he be responsible for 16 years of child care even if he raised kids and paid for kids that weren't his.

In a logical world, she'd have to pay him back for supporting kids that she lied about.

I could see validity if he knew the kids weren't his and he accepted responsibility anyways.
Why penalize the children? Sucks for the "dad", but the rights of the children are more important. Two wrongs don't make a right. The support is for the children - not the ex.
