By law, child support belongs to the child. Therefore, parents cannot agree between themselves to waive or reduce child support, either past-due or current. The venue that issued the order must approve any such agreement.
Yes. The court's job is to decide what is in the child's best interest. Even if the father does not want to see the child, why would it be in the child's best interest to give up child support for the child? There are, of course, exceptions, such as when the father is so bad for the child that giving up child support is better than having him around.
I don't know your situation, but you can do anything as long as both parties agree. What I mean by both parties is mother and father. If mother and father agree, and the 16 year old wants to live with her father for a year, then it is OK. If the parents do not agree, then a court hearing may be necessary to hear both sides and decide what is best for your daughter. Being that your daughter is 16, she will have some say in court as well.
Assuming that the couple are not married, the law presumes the unmarried mother has sole legal rights to the child and is not legally required to use the father's surname. This will apply even in matters of child support or the biological father receiving custodial/visitation rights. The exception would be if the biological father received full custody of the child, the court would allow the child to bear the father's surname for reasons that would be in the child's best interest and not that of either parent. The person "reporting" the birth (normally the mother or both parents) can call the child any name they wish.
FUTURE CHILD SUPPORT PAYMENTSyes he has to pay child support payments as long as he is told todoso by the courts.now if the new husband gives your child his name and the biological father agrees tosign his rights over he will not have to payany child support payments ,but as long as he hasn't signed his rights away you can get married and still get your child child support payments.both parents has to agree to have one parent give up their partenal rights.

No, Welfare will file, plus the father can file an order, as he should. see link
He is the father and not to allow him his child would hurt the child. Take him to family court for the support.

Yes. If the father and mother mutually agree to relinquish the biological father's rights he will not have to pay child support. However, most states will not allow this unless the new spouse is willing to legally adopt and provide for the child.
If you were married to the mother or you signed an acknowledgment of paternity, the law presumes that you are the father. However, before you agree to any child support, ask the court for genetic testing.
no
O9nly if he has primary custody, or family is intact.
If there is a relative or someone close to the family supervising it has to be someone both parents agree on. Otherwise the court will choose one.
Yes, but the mother/father has to agree. In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.
