Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Pregnant Teen Are There Any Choices

My younger sister, who is 15, has recently told my family that she is pregnant, the father who is a few months younger than her, also 15, neither who can get a job, I was wondering if my father has any recourse against the boy? Also can he get ''child support'' from the boy's parents, seeing as the boy can't work?
