Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

Child support for my step son?

I am looking to become divorced from my wife of five years. She has a son who is 11. I have been raising him as his father for the duration of the marriage since his biological father is not present in any way. I also have a biological son with my wife who is four years of age. Will I be required to pay child support for my step son?
