Child custody modifications may only take place through order of the court, however if you haven't seen your child in years and have been completely absent from their lives physically and monetarily, the other parent may seek to have your parental rights terminated based on the same.

Can a father get custody after 14 years just because I file for child support?

Filing for child support has no bearing on the issue of custody. Custody is decided on the basis of the welfare of the child. To get custody of a child, the father would have to demonstrate that he would do a better job as parent. I will add that even if you do need financial assistance, that does not in any way suggest that you are not a good mother. Those are separate issues.
