You'd have to find someone to adopt the child. The social security agency in your country would not let someone abandon their parental responsibilities unless they have found someone to take their place.

What do you do if your dad is a dead beat?
Not much you can do as the child but your mom can go to court and report him for not paying child support assuming there is a court order for it. The court have several ways to get someone to pay their child support.
What if the father is not paying child support and is a convicted felon with a criminal history does he still have visitation rights?
Visitation rights and child support are 2 separate issues in court. They see to what is best for the child and it often is to see both parents. It also depends on why he is not paying child support. If there is such order and he is not paying there are ways the court can see to that he does but you need to let them know he is not paying. You can not deny him visitation on your own, that would be breaking the court order and will get you into legal trouble. It's up to the court to decide if he is unfit for visitation based on his criminal past. Just because you've been to jail in the past does not mean you are a unfit parent now.
Do you have to have custody to file for child support?
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.
If you send your child to the father for a year should you be required to send him the child support money back?
Yes, its child support. If the money is not used to support the child then its being misused. Alimony would be to support you. If the father is looking after the child, then he should not be paying child support to the mother - she doesn't have the cost of looking after the child at that time. In fact, the mother may well be in a position to send chilod support to the father - it goes both ways and she is responsible for the child just as much as the father is.
If I want nothing to do with my pregnant ex partner or the child. How do I avoid paying child support?
It's too late now. If you didn't want children you needed to plan ahead before your ex partner got pregnant. There are ways to avoid conception. As the child's father you will have to pay child support as long as the child's mother files a petition for child support.

Is it legal for child support to render some one destitute?
Child support is figured at a fraction of your income. If you are young and do not have a good career, money is going to be short. You will need to find roommates, ride the bus and give up the internet/cell phone, among other things, to support your child. It isn't easy, but you should look to all [legal] avenues to find ways to improve your income.
What are the different ways of paying child support?
With the agreement of both parents and the court, child support may be paid directly by the NCP to the CP.

Can your husband adopt your child that you have custody of?
Not until the parental rights of the biological father have been terminated.There are a couple ways to do that:The bio father gives his consent and voluntarily surrenders his parental rights.You go to court and can get them to involuntarily terminate his parental rights; this one is much more difficult: if the bio father has abandoned the child, isn't paying child support, is in jail or is a danger to the child (or something similar), you may have a case, but if he's visiting and paying support you will have to go with the first option.
Can you sue your child's father in civil court for child support arrears?
Most jurisdictions separate child support matters from other civil suits. In any case, I suggest that you contact your State's child support agency. They have ways of collecting unpaid support.
Does an umarried mother have child support rights in Florida?
I think in all states unmarried mothers are elgible for child support. However they will want to establish the legal father of the child. This is called "paternity establishment." Paternity can be established in the following ways: • If a child is born to an unmarried mother, she and the man claimed to be the father can sign an "Affidavit of Parentage" to legally establish the father's rights and obligations. • The mother and the man claimed to be the father can ask a court to determine the legal father of the child. Genetic testing may be necessary to determine the biological father of a child.
