If you owe a rearage of around 20,000 in child support, and you surrender your parental rights...?

you can make a deal... I'll sign these papers if you lower the amount owed. If your friend hasn't seen the kid, has no relationship, then he should at least allow the kid to have a Dad by signing over his rights. Maybe he could get a stipulation that makes it an open adoption?

I would go to a lawyer and try to overturn the prenup.  It's a shame that he wouldn't even compensate you for you time in the marriage.

You need to speak with either a child support enforcement officer of a lawyer.

My ex pulled stuff too. Your ex will probably get away with it. Just concentrate on the custody. People like your ex will find a way of getting out of paying and you don't want someone like him raising your child.

Aaaaahh.... How convenient. Reaping financial incentives earned while married with a dependent AND wanting child support too? What a work of art you are.

You have a child with this moron? File for child support and turn this guy in. He needs help, and you don't need him.

supposedly yes but I would contact the child support contact site and get a confirmation or go to domestic relations and have them set it up for you

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.

Yes, that is all taken into consideration. See the site below where you can get an approximate idea of what your child support would be.

i'd wait to get the money and THEN break up. at least get it in writing that they owe you money before you do it, that way if you wind up taking them to court you'll have documentation of the money owed.

You will have to get the father to relinquish his parental rights.....then you will be able to proceed with the adoption.  With the right lawyer you might can get his right dissolved based on abandonment.  In any case check with your lawyer.

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?

collect child support and get over him.

As in you want to release someone from support obligations or you feel its' time you stopped paying child support?\n\nThe answer to your question is probably going to be "court order".\n\nIn any event I'd recommend contacting your county courthouse and requesting the information from an authority.\n\nBest of Luck,\nArmus

If you trully believe 100% that this man is the father of your child then whatever happens I would make him pay!\n\nHunt him down, drag him through the courts and make the bastard pay for his child.\n\nHe can move to Timbuctoo if he likes, I would still make him pay. he can deny responsibility and say he's not the father as much as he likes, but I'd still make him pay. This man is threatening to move/demand DNA tests to intimidate you- he's trying to discredit you as a woman not to mention what he's doing to his child and thats very unfair. Why should you care what happens to someone who stoops as low as this? Why should you care if he struggles or not- He is in the wrong not you! \n \nI'm sure you don't want or need his money but that is not the point. He has a responsibility to this child and even if he refuses to accept he has a moral duty of care (which is very convenient don't you think?) he certainly has a financial responsibility which he should not be allowed to walk away from.\n\nIf I were you, I would demand that he TAKE his DNA test- let him prove that he IS the father of your child and allow him to look like the complete heartless arsehole he really is- What have you got to lose honey?\n\nRemember- you are the one holding the baby, you are the one who is facing up to the loving responsibility of being a good mother and you are the only one who can hold this man accountable for his actions.\n\nSorry, but I do not agree that ANY man who has children should be allowed to simply walk away from their legal responsibilities.\nNever mind the fathers rights- what about the rights of their child? \n\nHunt him down- get everything- make him pay and if you really don't need the money, then put it in trust for your son so that he can use it when he is older.\n\nThere is no shame in making this man pay.. after all he felt no shame in sleeping with you to create a life- he must now be held accountable for his actions!\n\nPlease don't let him away with this- you have the right to be able to life your life and bring up your son with a decent standard of living-the money will help.\nI think that you have had a very lucky escape- Men like this are the scum of the earth and you deserve better!\n\nGood luck.

According to the local Children's Bureau here where I live, the moment my ex wife left me.\nThroughout reconciliation attempts I still paid.\nFor the record I became the custodial parent after a fairly amicable divorce and never shirked the support obligation.

The biological father would need to give up his rights or you would have to go to court and prove that the biological dather has done nothing for the child and you are his father in everything but name.
