More details to this question:
I have been guardian on 2 biological children for 15 years biological parents have never had any contact with them nor have they ever supported them in any way now they want custody of the children one child wants to know his parents the other dont I want both to remain with me will i lose custody
You need a lawyer to go over all the details. If you are a grandparent, PA courts grant custody rights to grandparents in your situation. if you are not, i am not sure. I doubt if the children will be yanked from you totally, but the bio parents will be given visitation at first then their attorney will gradually ask for more, like overnights, etc. If you can find a family attorney, in your county, you should at least talk to them.
