Paying child support isn't really a matter of choice. Each parent is required to comply with the court order(s) in the case.
Visitation should not be dependent on child support. How would the child feel losing the parent? Keep that issue in front of the judge.
No, that alone is not a reason to terminate custody. The non-custodial parent should be paying child support.
If the father is paying child support, the child shouldn't be in a ward. I would highly doubt it though.
yes
No, the child can not. The other parent could before the child was an adult. The money goes to the parent to use for the child and not directly to the child.
The father has to have the court's consent to cease paying child support.
no
So what relationship are you to the parent or the child? If you were married when the child was born, you are assumed to be the father. Unless someone else is listed on the birth certificate, you're going to be expected to support the child.
No, but your mother can as long as she filed a petition for child support and he did not pay.Child support goes to the parent to use for the child's expenses, and not paid directly to the child.
