Is it against the law if someone gives a 16 year old some birthday money and the parent takes is off them is it classed has theft.
10. In Michigan, a minor child (under 18 years of age) is legally defined as a possession of a parent(s). A minor child (a “possession”) cannot own possessions; therefore, any gift to the minor child, something a minor bought with personal money, or wages earned by the minor child are legally the possessions of the parent. A 17 year old who has left home against the parents’ wishes and refuses to return home has no legal right to any possessions in the parent’s home. 11. Parents control whether a minor child has a driver’s license until the age of 18 years. A parent can at any time revoke a minor child’s driving privileges. The parent will need to write a letter to the Secretary of State which indicates the minor child no longer has the parent’s permission to have a driver’s license.

Keeping the money is theft. You will have to pay it back. The money should go to the person who have the kids and if that is none of the parents, both parent have to pay child support to that person.
I would say , Yes. The reason is , sometimes if a child graduates, the mother may not inform the paying parent that the child did not continue with higher education.So the money continues until the paying parent finds out the child is out of school for good. Usually child support stops at age 18 unless the child has continued his/her education or has special medical needs, etc etc.Tell me if this is incorrect.
Unless there are unusually circumstances, once a minor becomes an adult under the laws of the state in which he or she lives (or as stated in the support order) child support ends. If he or she has established residence outside the custodial parent's home with the approval of the custodial parent, the obligated parent should petition the court to have the support order amended or rescinded. Child support money is for the support of minor children and not "owed" to the custodial parent. The custodial parent does have the legal right to sue the obligated parent for any arrearages or "extra" expenses incurred while the minor child was in his or her care.
In Ohio it is considered abandonment if a child is neglected or suffers physical or mental injury by a parent. It is also abandonment if a parent leaves their child for any period of time without any support, money, or communication.

Sure, a parent can own a child of any age money!
No. That money is owed to the child's custodial parent.No. That money is owed to the child's custodial parent.No. That money is owed to the child's custodial parent.No. That money is owed to the child's custodial parent.
No.
Yeah but will the child pay back? And will the parent allow to give their child a huge amount of money?
If the child is a minor, the parent has the right to control what the child does with the money and has the right to determine what items the child may have or use.
If you owe child support, the custodial parent can place a lien on your property. A custodial parent who is owed child support can place a lien on your property. A lien is a notice that tells the world that there are claims against you for money
No, the child can not. The other parent could before the child was an adult. The money goes to the parent to use for the child and not directly to the child.
They earned more money than their parents.
No, the parent/guardian gets the money and is supposed to use the money to care for the child (food, education, ect.)
As much as they want.
Under the Divorce Act, child support payments are typically made to the other parent, not directly to the child. If one parent wants to give child support directly to the minor child, they should discuss this with the other parent and try to come to an agreement. If an agreement cannot be reached, the matter may need to be resolved through a court or through mediation.
