Yes. Termination of parental rights usually means you still have to pay child support. There is no reason why the state/taxpayers would have to do it.

Can a mother claim child support if her rights were taken due to drug charges?

No. If her parental rights have been revoked by the court she would not have custody of a minor child and therefore not eligible for funds to support that child. If child support were being paid before the mother's rights were terminated that support now belongs to the person(s) or agency having legalcustody of the child.

Who legally adopted the child?If the mother's new husband legally adopted the child, then the biological father's parental rights had to be terminated first. Which means that the biological father is NOT obligated to pay child support anymore. The new adoptive father has taken on all rights and responsibilities for the child.


After termination of parental rights can you gain visitation?

It depends on why the rights were terminated. If your ex is getting re-married and the new stepparent wants to adopt the child, then you can still get visition.

You signed over your child and stated on paper that you are no longer their parent. Congratulations.

How likely is a mother having the fathers rights terminated if he is willing to pay childsupport?

The mother can not terminate his rights, it's the court who do that. And child support is decided by the court unless the parents agree on it so it's not actually a choice. The punishments are sever if you don't pay. And even if your parental rights are given up/taken away, you will have to pay child support. Those are 2 different issues.
