(Newser) – Sarah Palin’s father—the great-grandfather of Bristol Palin’s son, Tripp—says 19-year-old babydaddy Levi Johnston “has not contributed anything” to raising the boy, Us reports. Chuck Heath took exception to Johnston’s recent Palin-bashing media tour. “He’s broke, so he’s trying to capitalize on this. I wish he’d take some of this money he’s making and buy some diapers with it.”

Regardless of the reasons for the child being here...like it or not....the child is here, and the PARENTS...note the plural usage of the word......need to provide for the child.....popular bias for or against the relatives of the child has no bearing on this situation......LEVI needs to help out what he and bristol started
