In some parts of the world, yes.
Typically, no. One usually cannot sue a minor, but you might be able to sue the minor's parents for negligence in supervising the child. The age of majority in most jurisdictions is 18, and that is usually when someone can independently sue and be sued. Additionally, minors cannot be bound to most contractual obligations.
The fact that they are the biological parents is irrelevant. Writing defamatory things about anyone, if untrue, is libel. So yes, assuming the facts above, you could sue.
Who are you and who are you to the 20yo and his parents? Impossible to answer without knowing but I would assume the court would find that the parents have had more influence over their child than you.

The short answer is no - the long answer is yes, depending on the circumstances. If you sustained injuries, you can sue for punitive damages regardless of the child's age. Parents of the child cannot necessarily sue the parents unless they were negligent in the care or restraint of the child. For example, you cannot sue the parents of the child if they weren't present, however, you can sue the parents if they were present and did nothing to restrain the child from assaulting you.
Yes a child can sue a parent for unpaid child support if there was a child support order.
If you're in the US, no, a child cannot sue his parent for child support (payment for child support is not due to the child).
Sue him for retroactive child support.
yes, under the specified relative rule. Department of family and children services will give beneifts to the child's blood relative without proof of legal custody or legal guardianship. Then they will transfer the case to the office of child support to sue the custodial parent. DFACS does not care if relative is harboring a runaway or reason child is in relative's care. If you locate your child and have them back in your home, office of child support will still sue you until the relative closes it's welfare case.
No. You have to prove the child knew what they were doing.
it was your child's fault
It is possible
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.
