When the obligor parent is a minor and cannot pay. This is the case with a 12 year old Ohio boy who got a 19 year old pregnant. While she served time in jail, he or his parents must pay $50 a month in child support to the maternal grandparents who are caring for the child.

Here in CA he would not be required to pay anything until he was 18, at which point child support would become active.
Depending on the age of the mother, she could be brought up on rape charges though, for having sex with a minor.

∙ 12y agoIf the minor father can not pay, the mother can petition for that his parents pay. So it would be them she would go after. But if you are in their place (if they are deceased etc) it would be you that might have to pay in his place. It depends on the law where you live and what the judge says.

Mom has full custody children don't want to go to dad's can mom force dad to take them when she goes on vacation?
A father who does not have legal custody of his children cannot be forced to take care of those children while the mother, who has custody, is on vacation. And really, it would not be good for the children to be left with the father if that father actually didn't want to take care of them, but was forced to do so by some form of legal coercion. Children should be cared for by someone who actually wants to care for them. They will get much better care that way.
