Re: what to do
What you did not say is who has legal or physical custody. What does it mean that the child is living with grandmother. What actions or inactions have caused the lapse of contact. Under optimal conditions, assuming paternity has been established, it is perfectly reasonable to go to court and seek contact with the child.
