It depends on where you live. In the United States, the parent who filed for child support can file for modification or termination of child support, but needs to provide supporting documentation as well as good reasons why it should be modified/terminated. The court looks at the well being of the child and what would be best for him/her, not whether a parent has a change of heart and is doing this to cut the other parent some slack.
