yes. the child has up till a certain age to pursue back child support. the child can use back child support to go to college or use it for other stuff. even if you gave up your rights. the money won't go to the mother , it will go to the child. if she was adopted by a future husband that married your ex wife, then that's a different story. one thing is different from the other in the courts eyes. the longer the mother goes with petition the better the matter is with you. if she waits till the child is 16 or 17 then she can't control the money if you have to pay it. it can go straight into a account in you child's name only. if the child gets married early or starts working, the matter can change again. once the child becomes a 18 yr old, a petition will have to be done by the child and not the mother.
I need to know the answer to this question because my boyfriend got drunk at a party and cheated on me. The girl he cheated with came back seven and a half months pregnant and said that it was a possible that it was his (she also said there are two other possiblities). She told him that she wants to be with him but he's with me. We want to know will he have to pay child support if the baby is his and signs over all of his parental rights.
I don't believe you ever have to pay child support if you relinquish your parental rights. But why would you do that though? It's a win-lose situation. If you are no longer the child's legal parent, you could lose a lot of your rights, like visitation rights.

If the father Legally gave up his parental rights - (signed legal papers), then he is no longer legally responsible to pay child support for the child. Did he give up parental rights so you could remove the child from the country? A family member of mine had to have her baby's father sign away his parental rights so he would not have to pay child support when he entered the military. So - once parental rights are signed away Legally, the father has NO obligation to pay child support. You cannot have it both ways - you cannot have him sign away his parental rights, yet still expect him to pay child support.
