One thing I do know is that visitation and support are two separate issues. Whether or not you utilize your visitation rights, does not mean whether or not you pay child support. So in my opinion, no, you don't have to visit...but you still must pay support...and on another note...do you think that maybe your influence might help your child with whatever is making him/her abusive? And maybe your lack of influence might hurt him/her? I am very pro-involvement as far as parents go. Please try to solve the problem by means other than abandonment.
It's possible that if you file for child support he will file for visitation - assuming he isn't neglectful or abusive, visitation is his right as one of the parents of the child.
Child support and visitation are separate issues and giving up visitation does not cancel the responsibility to pay child support. A request to reestablish visitation can be filed even after previously waiving visitation.
In a situation such as this, the custodial parent should oppose visitation or, if that fails, ask for supervised visitation.
yes you have to pay or scocial services will say you cant visit unless you pay child support
Generally only the child support and visitation schedule are subject to modification.Generally only the child support and visitation schedule are subject to modification.Generally only the child support and visitation schedule are subject to modification.Generally only the child support and visitation schedule are subject to modification.
Yes. visitation and child support are two separate issues. If there is a visitation order it has to be followed. The children do not have a choice and it's the parent's obligation to see to that the court order is obeyed. If the court order for visitation is violated you have to report this back to the court by filing a motion for contempt against the custodial parent. You must obey your child support order. If you fail to pay you will be in contempt of court are child support arrears will continue to accumulate. If you have not petitioned for visitation and just left it up to the mother to decide there is nothing you can do but go back to court and request a visitation order.
I doubt it - support and visitation are different matters.
child support and visitation rights are two totally different things. The answer is no.
Yes you have to continue to pay child support. If you have an established standing court order for custody/visitation you can file a violation of that order with the court in the jurisdiction the order was established. If you do not have a custody/visitation order I would suggest you get one in your jurisdiction ASAP.
they are completely separate just because you pay child support has nothing to do with visitation, sorry
If you mean, what are the Dad's rights, he has the right to continue paying child support and the right to visitation, both as established by the courts.
Child support and custody/visitation are separate issues. You should contact your local courts to file for visitation/custody if the custodial parent is denying visitation.
