Why were white men not made to pay child support to children they fathered by slave women and why were they not prosecuted for rape especially of children?

The reason is that in the days of slavery, slaves were considered property. They had no legal rights nor existence under the law. The owner could do anything they wanted with their slaves. They could work them to death, beat them to death, rape them and sell their children. Slaves were listed in property in tax records and wills.

Do a man have to pay child support if he have 9 kids?
Yes. It does not matter how many children someone has fathered, one still has to pay for child support for all his children. However, in many states, child support PER CHILD is reduced because of the number of children a parent has to support. However, the total amount paid will be higher. Also, a father does not have to pay child support if his parental rights were terminated and the child was adopted by someone else.

You and your husband have found out he has a 4-year-old from a previous relationship and you have a 2-year-old son and are pregnant can his child support be lowered?
Not based on the grounds of the number of children he has fathered. Biological parents are legally responsible for the support of their children regardless of whether the child/children are born outside of a marriage. The matter of "just found out" is a bit confusing since the question implies a child support order is in affect. If the order was issued recently the court was aware of the father's circumstances and would be highly unlikely to amending the order.
