The state of Texas reliquished my rights to my son. Do I have to pay child support?

I love how the first thing that comes to your head after losing your son is whether you'll have to PAY anything....\n\nYou are sad.  The kid is better off...

Take the bit*h to court, that way if you get partial custody and visitation rights, she cant sue you for child support.  You'll be suprised how fathers have rights these days to help them see their children.

Child support is not owed to the state. The state collects it forcibly if the parent will not pay willingly, but some states just collect if forcibly because they are nasty.  If you give your kids up for adoption, you owe nothing, and have nothing. A parent who gives up their kids must pay a great deal more than money. They will be paying a bit of themselves for the rest of their life.

Go to your county's Child Support Agency. It's in the phonebook. Call or walk-in. If the children are in your care for more than 1/2 the time, he will be required to pay child support. As far as him seeing them, you may have to go to mediation which cost me $100. I didn't request it, he did. Actually, he requested it 2 times. Do your best as far as that goes. You do have to cooperate with visitation but only if he's looking for the best interest of the child. Which is what the mediator does. However, the mediator will believe what he/she wants from both sides. Be polite. My ex started to get rude and it effected the outcome. I just stayed quiet during his little fit. I hope this helps. Good luck! Don't let him bully you out of this either. You're fighting for your children's rights.

You need to file a petition with the court.  If they ordered that he has visitation rights and she is breaking that order they can haul her back.  They also can suspend her child support payments until those visitation rights are restored.  Just don't do anything without going through the court.

Even if he signs over his parental rights, that doesn't resolve him of financial responsibility in most cases. It gets tricky when it crosses state lines however. Many states now have reciprical agreements, where support payments in one state will be honored (and enforced) by the other.\n\nYou would need to contact the family courts in Missouri to see if they will enforce child support payments ordered by a New Mexico court.

Payment is child support is not contingent upon anything. Certainly not on whether you see the child.\n\nYou owe child support payments because the child EXISTS not as a fee that buys you the right to anything. \n\nYou may have a right to demand that the child not be moved out of state but that is completely separate from your legal obligation to support your child.\n\nBut if you do not see the child then what possible reason could you have for wanting to keep the child in state?

Man, I just went through this! If her bio. father pays child support, then yes he must be contacted to sign away his rights even if she has NEVER laid her eyes on him. If he doesn't pay or contribute in any way, when your child has gone without ANY paternal support for 5 consecutive years, then all you have to do is run it in the classified ads in your town for 4 weeks. The newspaper will give you an affidavit and you will have to sign one stating that you have not received any support from her bio. father. After that point, it is pretty smooth sailing. Hopefully you won't get an A-hole for a judge like I did... the same judge that ordered my son's father to only pay $96 a month for support <--- Please try to hold your laughter until the end of the paragraph. Thank you.

Anyone can sue anyone else over anything.  Would you prevail?  Probably not.  You don't have to sign a birth certificate or appear in court.  If the mother said you were the father, then you probably should see an attorney about taking a paternity test.  Then they will know for sure.  If you aren't, you can get your life back on track.  Of course if you are, be prepared to pay out over $10,000.  Good luck with it.

If the support is not court ordered and the mother is not requesting support then legally he doesn't have to  pay anything. Morally however, and assuming he's a responsible father and parent, then he should be making it his business and priority to ensure that his child or children are provided for to the best of his financial ability.

you can get a divorce. however you husband can argue that your child that you are pregnant is his. See if you are married and are pregnant, your husband is the legal father regardless if you cheated on him or you live separately. more than likely he would not contest that, but in Texas you only have to be married to have legal parental rights.

no, b/c your child is now an american citizen and is entitled to all the services an american citizen can receive.

I think if he has been ordered to pay child support some type of parternity must have been established.  He can go to court and stop you from moving out of state.  I would contact an attorney and talk them about this.  Good luck!

Oh, yes m'am. He *is* still liable to pay back support. In fact, you have until the tenth anniversary of the date the child/ren graduates from high school to begin the initial process of trying to collect. This is a little known fact that every Texas mother should read.

You need to speak with an attorney. Even if someone in here says they are one you still need to speak with one in person. They offer free consultations and can steer you in the right direction.I would say if the parental rights were given up then there probably isnt anything that can be done. But please speak with an attorney here.
