In Most states child support is separate from custody. Even if the non custodial parent is not paying child support he / she can request to visitation. because the parent is in arears does not hinder him / her the right to visit the child. both visitation and support are doen separately. Uunless there was a divorce that stipulates the arangement.

It is my understanding that if the noncustodial parent is paying child support in the state of Mo. and the child decides to live on campus/away from custodial parent while attending college and noncustodial parent is paying % of college expenses that include room and board a modification/reduction in child support may be in order. However I would like to see a court case/opinion regarding this matter.
In general, child support is based on a percentage of net income. Being a student doesn't exempt one from paying support, altho lack of income might.

That's an interpretive item meant for a judge. At the minimum, the separated parent should file an emergency motion to modify custody of a child in need of care. You can never stop paying the support without the approval of the court. see link

YES! I have been through this with my Ex_husband & he went to jail for Non-Payment! He is not excused from his Parental Responsibilities. #2 answ: Yeah, and he's doing such a fine job of paying for it from jail...
It might not seem logical that a noncustodial parent be required to pay child support for an adopted child, but laws vary widely from state to state. Your best bet is to find a good family law attorney.
Everyone who is not the biological parent or adoptive parent.
No, and no can he, so there must be a greater issue related here as to the safety of the children. As for being in arrears, in this economy that comes as no shock as men do not know there is free legal help to avoid or reduce arrears from the government. That is what I teach them.
