do i have to meet my father's dad in another state if i can not afford it

Hello, I'm sorry, but I simply need more information before I can reasonably answer this.  Do you have to meet your "Father's dad" would imply a grandfather.  As to having to meet a grandfather out of state, unless there is an order of court specifying that grampa gets visitation and that you are equally responsible for the costs, then likely you do not have to go meet grampa.
