Yes, either from the other teen parent, or the teen's parents, which can be either the teen mother or father, depending on which has court ordered custody. Child support may not be ordered if the teen parent has joint physical custody, which is best for the child.

Can primary parent get child support from disabled parent on welfare?

The non-custodial parent will still owe child support, even if he or she is disabled and on welfare. However, most states will not garnish needs-based assistance such as disability or welfare payments. So if the parent is not working and does not pay his or her court-ordered child support, it would be difficult for the state to collect. He or she might still be arrested and jailed for failure to pay.

If a 17 year old moves out of parent's house and lives with a friend then turns 18 can the friend collect child support from the 18 year old's parent since the 18 year old is still in school?

No, a friend cannot collect child support from the 18-year-old's parent. Child support is typically paid to the custodial parent or legal guardian of a minor child, not to a friend. Since the 18-year-old is now considered an adult, they would be responsible for their own support.

Of course. Unless the non-custodial parent takes sole custody, the non-custodial parent is still responsible for paying child support to whomever the child goes to. There is no reason the death of a parent should terminate the other parent's child support obligation.

Child support and visitation are two separate issues. The custodial parent can file a suit for child support but cannot deny the non custodial parent custodial or vistation rights is said parent wants those rights.

Such matters are decided by the court if the parents cannot find an equitable solution.
