That's an odd question. Most women do seek child support. But for those who don't it's for various reasons. Some or most would be because they either do not know their rights or are in fear of the child's father. Other lesser reasons would be due to the financial status of the women being such that she does not want or need support & therefore wishes to be independent to get away from the dad. Those are only some of the reasons as to why the mother would not seek child support. For the best answer, ask the woman in question.

There could be several reasons why some women might not seek child support. Some common reasons include:
- Lack of awareness or understanding of the legal process and available resources.
- Unwillingness to involve the father and potential conflict that may arise from pursuing child support.
- Financial independence or stability that makes child support unnecessary.
- Fear of repercussions or negative judgment from family, friends, or society.
