In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.
If the parents are married and living together they have equal parental rights. If you are married and living apart you should consult with an attorney to see if a legal separation is available in your state. If so the court would address custody, support and visitation issues.If the parents are married and living together they have equal parental rights.

yes
The presence of a notarized statement is not relevant, as the state law determines the age of majority and the court determines who has custody of a minor if the parents have had their rights terminated or some other issue prevents the minor from living with them. That does not appear to apply in this case, the parents have legal custody of you unless a court has ruled otherwise. The legal age in most US states is 18 and there are no states where a 17-year-old can legally and arbitrarily leave parental custody if the parents are opposed.
Your question could be read in different ways. Child support is intended only for the support of children and their needs. If the children are in the custody of (living with and being supported by) someone who is not the parent on a regular basis, that person must petition the court to be appointed the legal guardian and then petition for a child support order against the parents. If you are the parent then you must have custody in order to get child support. If your children are in the custody of someone else, such as the example provided above, you cannot receive child support.
It is possible to regain custody after rights have been terminated. However, this includes a very long court battle and is not usually beneficial to the child who has been living with his or her adoptive parents.
Child support laws vary from country to country, state to state etc. Quite often, even in a shared custody arrangement, the parent that earns more money may pay some child support to the other parent to equal out the living standards.
generally people move out at 18, but with parental permission or if you are emancipated you can when you are 17 (you can emancipated if your parents are failing to provide you with support). If you are not emancipated then you cant move out at 17. Living on your own is a lot harder then you think and should be thought about before moving out unless parents are not providing support.
No, both parents have equal rights to the child. If the child is currently living with the father, then he has established temporary custody. A court will need to decide upon a formal custody and child support agreement.
You file for custody as the child should be living with one of them. The custodial parent can be charged with abandonment. if the child has married, get the support stopped, or have the child emancipated.
mother has sole custody even if living with father
The unmarried father must file a petition in the family court to establish his parental rights legally. Once established, he can request visitation rights or custody through the family court. If the mother retains custody he will be granted a visitation schedule and will also be subject to a child support order.By not establishing his parental rights legally at the time of birth, the unmarried mother has freedom of movement. Once she moves with the child to another state it will be much more difficult and costly for the father to pursue his parental rights.
Physical custody means that a person (typically the parent) has the right to have the child living with them. This could be sole physical custody, or even joint physical custody in which the parents share custody of their child.
