They certainly can. The judge is the 500 lb elephant in the room. He or she can make any ruling they so desire as long as it is not in violation of state law and the laws of Georgia state that the named father has an obligation to support their child whether the child is legitimized or not, unless the father can prove via a court ordered paternity test that he is not the father. Legitimization of the child is to protect the father's right to visitation and custody and has absolutely nothing to do with support obligations.
No. You are a minor with a child. Nothing more nothing less. To be emancipated you need to prove to a judge that you can support yourself and your child.
It is likely that the judge will enter a child support order and may assess an amount for back child support.
Child support is court ordered. The judge decides who pays child support and how much.
There are no valid reasons not to get child support. That money is supposed to be used to help raise the child. If the custodial parent tries to refuse child support before a judge, the judge will override the custodial parent's wishes and explain that the child support belongs to the child, not to the custodial parent.
Generally, no. Child support must be ordered by a judge, and in most states the judge is required to follow established child support guidelines. However, there are usually exceptions to these guidelines that the judge can take into consideration, but these are exceptions and not the rule.
Through an order issued either by a judge or by the State's child support agency.
