As long as it is child support and not alimony (to the woman) then yes, you can stop paying. But, it is still your child. Think about that one before you go to sleep tonight.

Do you need to pay for your wifes son who now lives with his farther?
There are too many unknowns to formulate a simple answer to this question. Have you legally adopted him, and subsequently divorced his mother (now your ex-wife)? Are you court-ordered to pay her support for the child? What is the biological father's role in all this? Is HE paying support to her also? Is the biological father paying ANY support or does he just have custody? Does he have court ordered (legal) custody? Whatever the case, now that he is residing with, or in the custody of, his biological father, your ex-wife has materially changed the parameters of any support situation. It sounds like you really need the advice of an attorney to straighten out, or extricate yourself, from this situation.

If he has custody or possession of the child in question. It's not likely to be awarded, and only 5% pf those ordered to do so pay anything. That works out to 1 out of 1000 custodial fathers get paid. They can also be ordered to pay even with sole custody.see link
