A mother can use the child support in any way that fulfills the needs of the children. She needs it even more if she's not working.

No, as the payor has to approve the adoption
If spouse takes child out of state against your wishes can she collect child support?
If the mother has the full custody then she can take the child, and she can get the child support. If she doesn't have the full custody, then she is not allowed to take the child without the father consent, but she still can get the child support.

no the mother should have the legal obligation to take care of the child
Do you owe your child's mother child support if the child has a child of her own?
Yes. You have to legally support the child until she is 18; the only way you don't have to is if the court terminates the child support. You cannot (legally) decide yourself that you no longer have to take care of your child.
I am in California...If a child gets pregnant while living with her mother does the father have to pay child support for the child's child as well?
Child support for the grandchild is the responsibility of the grandchilds father, not the grandchild. If the father is a minor, you can take his parents to court for support.
Can a mother terminate custody. She has 100 percent custody. She is paid child support for that child for 365 days of the year. Can she force father to take the child. Child is a drug addict.?
She can't. She might be able to persuade a court to do so. The child support would, of course, cease (and in fact the father might be able to then claim child support from the mother).
Can a father who is not on the birth certificate put the mother on child support because he is angry and the child has been living with him for about 2 years?
Yes but if you all take it to court paternity will have to be established but yes he can make the mother pay support and rightfully so but why dont the mother start spending equal amount of time with the child and no one pays support and the child wins cause they have both parents

He can refuse to see the child; he cannot refuse to support the child.
Can a Florida mother receive child support even if she owes child support on a previous case?
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.
Do you have to support your separated spouse?
Parents must support their biological children regardless of the circumstances and regardless if a child support order is in place. Judges take an extremely critical view of a parent whether it be the father or mother who neglect their parental responsibilties. The morality of such action is an entirely different issue.
If the mother of a child took the father off child support can they put him back on?
The only time you can take a father off of child support is if the mother agrees with it, but that rarely happens, so I'm going to have to say no, it's very rare, the closest you can get to not paying AT ALL, is reducing the pay .
