No. He will be responsible for paying any child support that the court orders. Being unmarried means the mother of the child has no right to spousal support.

No. If there is not a custodial order in place the law presumes that an unmarried mother has full custodial rights to her child and does not need permission from the biological father or the court in matters concerning the child. In addition, when a child is born out-of-wedlock the biological father must establish paternity before custodial, visitation and child support can be addressed.
Does the father of a child have to pay child support if he is not married to the mother and wants custodial rights in Idaho?
Yes. Just because you're not married doesn't mean you're not the child's father, and it's on that basis that child support is ordered. * Additionally, both parents are equally responsible for supporting their child/children. Courts no longer grant custodial rights to the mother simply because she is "the mother". However, the law presumes that an unmarried woman retains sole custody to a child until a court rules otherwise. The father must establish parentage before the court will consider child support, custodial, visitation or other issues

Can an unmarried or divorced father just take his child when he wants to?
AnswerNo. In each case the father must follow the court orders for custody and visitations. The unmarried father must establish his paternity legally, in court, in order to obtain custody and/or a visitation schedule. The non-custodial parent should not be allowed to drop by to pick up the child whenever he wants unless that is agreed to by the custodial parent. In that case he should call ahead in case the child is sick, busy with homework or other planned activities, or the custodial parent has made other plans. It would be intolerably disruptive to simply drop by unannounced and expect to take the child unless that has been agreed upon by the custodial parent.Dropping by unannounced can be a way to maintain control over the other parent. If that is the case the custodial parent should act ASAP to establish a court approved visitation schedule that is convenient for all the parties.
