Yes, you are responsible for paying for your child no matter what happens to you, no matter what rights you lose. Even if you lose all visitation rights you still have to pay! It depends. If your child is being adopted probably not, but if your child is going to an orphanage then the answer is probably yes. Legal obligations aside, if you fathered a child you have a moral obligation to support that child.

Can child support stop to the mother that has signed over her rights?
Child support is paid to support the child and follows the child; it is paid to the child's custodial parent, or to a guardian. So if the mother has lost her rights, she is no longer custodial and therefore may no longer have charge of the funds. Child support will still have to be paid though and this time also by the mother, to the one now taking care of the child. If the child is being adopted you pay until the adoption is finalized.
Can you stop the mother of your child's' new husband from adopting your son while you're in federal prison?
If you have already lost your parental rights there is nothing you can do. If you have not you need a lawyer to fight for you since she will go to court and ask them to terminate your rights. If you get to keep your parental rights you can have a chance for visitation depending on which state you are in. That is the child comes to you in prison, not the other way around.

Depends on the reason for the non-payment. Only 3% of child support obligors refuse to pay for no significant reason. The remainder are due to unemployment and indigent status in the poor economy.

Over 90% of those committing crime were raised without a father, so this issue needs to be addressed lightly as it has significant and far reaching detriments to society in general. see link below
