A mother is supposed to support her child through high school, as long as the child remains in school. Children are not required to support their parents.
In the US, at least, child support is regarded as a right of the child, not the parent. So yes... a child, even an illegitimate one, has a right to the financial support of the parents, and the mother can bring a suit on the behalf of the child.
If you mean, what are the Dad's rights, he has the right to continue paying child support and the right to visitation, both as established by the courts.
If the mother isn't receiving any kind of assistance from the government, she can waive the right to child support from the father, but it wouldn't be in the child's best interest. Child support is the child's right, not the mother's. If the mother were really well off financially, or if she didn't want the father anywhere around the child, she could waive the child's right to support. The father has a responsibility to help take care of the child he helped bring into this world.ClarificationGenerally, in the US, a mother cannot legally waive a child's right to support from their father. A child is legally entitled to be supported by both parents. However, the mother can choose to not involve the court if the parents were never married or if there will be no divorce action filed. However, if the mother doesn't want the money she should put in a college fund for the child.
Spousal support or alimony, possibly. Child support, no.

No. If the state is supporting the mother and child the mother has no right to free the father from his responsibility to support his own children. The state will pursue him for child support.
In this case, you can not force the mother to be in contact with her child, neither can the court, however, you are, and by all means, entitled to child support. All you need to do is, file for it.
its depends because if you adopted the child the mother no longer is responsible you are. but if she gave you the child with out terminating her parental rights then you have the right to sue her.
If you are the father, file for custody. As for the child support, until custody is decided, request the payment be sent to whomever has the child, plus that the mother be ordered to pay. see links below
Maybe. If the man was married to the mother at the time the child was born, it is his child. In addition, consider the effects of withdrawing your affection to the child--is it really right? Sometimes the legal "right" is not truly right.
Child support is intended for the child's benefit, not the mother's.
