The fact that once he became a problem to his brother and sister, they suddenly want you to take him back, is suspicious. Sounds to me like he's become their problem, and they don't like that, and see you as a solution for them. That's not good. That indicates there might be even more to the story, and you don't want to get involved. As for if it's right... whether it is right or wrong for you to do, is really a matter for you to decide. If you mean, is there any requirement morally or legally for you to deal with this man, the answer is no. Obviously there is no legal requirement. Morally, your obligations ended when he refused to have you in his life. Unless you feel that G-d is asking you to do something, I'd stay out of this issue.

Hello zengy I'm sorry to hear about anyone misfurtune. So he left you several years ago with 3 kids. Has he been in touch over those years? I sounds to me as though his family is trying to push the responbibility onto you because they don't want bothered. Are you still married to him? Even if you are, I don't see you being responsible for taking care of him. He made his bed when he left...let him lay in it.
