Not only do courts represent the best interest of the child...but also they represent the interests of the taxpayers. We're the ones who ensure they receive a paycheck every week...so I am not a 100% sure on this but essentially....the answer is NO...they don't pay support. Let me go a bit further and add that the court also will not terminate a parents rights if by doing so it directly puts the burden for taking care of the child (ren) on the taxpayers....so for all those questions about how to terminate a parent's rights...the real answer is in oneself. It they are the deadbeat...let them be. Just ensure that you are a grown up with a full-time job and benefits for your children so that when the time comes...the deadbeats rights will indeed be terminated.

Can you collect child support if your child is not living with you?
In most cases the parent who has the child doesn't have to pay child support. The parent who does not have the child pays child support if they want visitation rights. In most jurisdictions, the non custodial parent must pay child support even without visitation rights.
If you give away parental rights do you have to pay child support?
Yes, you are STILL the person responsible for bringing the child into the world. You need to support them. The laws vary from state to state on parental rights and child support,So signing away your parental rights may not relieve you from paying child support.. However if one parent wants the other parent to sign away their parental rights,they can come to a legal aggreement that if the parent signs away their rights then the other parent will cancel any current child support and will not seek support for that child in the future,this of course must be done through the courts...
