It depends on what other family is still alive. If there is an aunt or uncle - or even an older sister or brother - so long as the prospective guardian is over 18, they would probably be granted guardianship. If there are no surviving relatives, the child would be cared for by the state.

For Example, if you make a family with 2 adults, 1 Teen, and 1 child, and then kill both adults, you may continue to play the household provided you don't kill the teenager.

How do you let go of a child who is being turned against you by your ex-wife?

Don't let go and PLEASE don't give up! Time will tell. The child will eventually see for his/herself. Just be there for your child no matter what.

Both parents have the responsibility to raise this child without the child feeling they have to pick one parent over the other. This causes undo stress on them as they feel they must keep each parent happy at all cost.

Generally, both parents. Child support is based on actual time spent with the child and actual money earned by each of the parents.

There will be a short hearing - unless both parties agree - and a judge will determine who pays and how much.
