If what you mean is can back owed child support payments be discharged in bankruptcy: NO. Regardless of how old the child is now. on the other hand if you mean to be included in the repayment schedule for a chapter 13 then yes. Child support arrearages can sometimes be included in bankruptcy. This pertains to arrearages only and not to current support due. A bankruptcy petition cannot override a court order of support and if arrearages are allowed to be included in a 13 the arrearages must be paid in full, not a percentage thereof, as is possible with unsecured creditors.
Depending on the state you live in. If you have a lawyer,contact him or her. Form LIBC 686 To petition for penalties. For failure to make timly payments.
File a petition in the court where the child support order was issued to have the order rescinded for reasons of the parents reconciliation. Be advised, that any arrearages that were covered by the state will have to be paid.
Its about half-way acceptable, and certainly better than not paying any at all. If there have been changes to your income or other relevant changes, you should petition the court to reconsider the amount of payments. Otherwise you will be building arrearages and will be in contempt of a court order.
No. A termination of parental rights petition will not be accepted by the court until all arrearages have been paid. Additionally, TPR petitions are not a means for a parent to be relieved of his or her responsibility to their child or children. Judges rule on TPR's according to what is in the best interest of the children and generally grant the petition only when the issue is of the child being eligible for adoption.

Probably not, some US states do allow child support arrearages to be paid after the order is granted but it is contingent on the specifics of each case. The court will want a complete explanation of why a support order was not pursued at the birth of the child or shortly there after, rather then years later. If the reason is something such as the father could not be located arrearages might be granted.
Payments stop in accordance with the language of the court order and/or the laws of your State.
The custodian of the children is entitled to the child support payments. The only way to keep the mother from getting the child support payments would be to have the grandparents petition the court for custodial rights - which could be extremely difficult, depending on your state.
By including that in your divorce petition.
