The father of my children lives in Canada and doesn't pay child support but still gets all visitations. Is there anything I can do to legally make him pay?

That's a tricky one since it is a different county. You migh try contacting your state attorney general's office so that they can guide you in the right direction. You can also file a suit against him and get some money out of him that way.

Can a mother get into trouble if the father is paying child support and not seeing the child?
Not if the father hasn't requested a visitation schedule. The mother should allow the father to visit with the child. However, if there is no visitation order in place she won't "get into trouble" if he's is not having visitations with the child. Child support and visitations are two separate issues as far as the court is concerned.Fathers are entitled to visitations. If the mother refuses the father should return to court and request a visitation schedule. The mother will be legally obligated to obey that order.Not if the father hasn't requested a visitation schedule. The mother should allow the father to visit with the child.

Are you legally responsible to pay child support for your new husband children?
No, child support is his responsibility only.
Can you stop visitations if dad stops paying child support?
In the US, no.
My children live with my ex-husband I not had any visitations for over 6 mos do I still have to pay child support Even if my children say they don't want to see me?
Technically yes because they are still your responsibility, but on the other hand, if they don't want anything to do with you, it would be hard to want to and try to support them. How are old your kids? And im sorry to hear that they don't want to see you, I know that's hard.
If you get remarried and have children that you support at home can your child support from your previous marriage be increased?

Of course. Even if she is remarried the father is still the father of the children and legally responsible for their support.

Can a mother refuse the rights to a father even if the child support is paid in full?
No. If the father is not paying his child support she needs to file a motion for contempt with the court. She cannot withhold visitations on her own. Visitations and child support are two separate issues.
Where can you get child support?
If you are the mother you must visit your local family court and ask to speak with an advocate. You will need to initiate a court action to have the child's paternity established legally. Once paternity has been established the court will issue a child support order in the amount required by the child support guidelines in your jurisdiction and the father can request visitations.

Who invented child support?
There was no "inventor" of child support. Parents have been held legally responsible for their children for centuries - probably since children were invented. Otherwise, the community and/or the State ends up supporting the child.
Are you required to pay child support if you can't see your child?
