Some feel they have no relationship with the child anymore when the child refuse to see them or the other parent have done everything to keep them apart. They think that it is what they all want and what is best for the child. Feelings change of course but then it can be too late.
Others move away for work etc and see how great the new step dad fits in and feels pushed out and that the relationship with the kid is not as good as it was and by moving away it will be worse.
Some are tired of fighting with the other parent who manage to convince them it's better if they leave.
If the parent have problems like addiction for instance they can convince themselves they are better parents by leaving.
The reasons are many, many, many.

Why would department of social services want a birth parent to pay child support when they have had their child taken?
Because that child still needs support and the birth parent is the one who should pay it.
Do you still pay support if your child work?
If the child is providing more than 50% of his or her own financial support, then no, child support would not continue. However, if 50% or more of his or her financial support is still coming from the custodial parent, then child support would continue like normal.
Can you receive child support of im under 18?
Your parent would file for child support from the other parent and you would be living with them.
Does the wife of the noncustodial parent that owes child support have to pay the custodial parent child support if the noncustodial parent is not working?
It depends on the state. If your state calculates child support based on household income, then yes, she would be required to pay her husband's child support. If your state calculates child support based on only the non-custodial parent's income, then no, should would not be required to pay. However, her husband would still owe that money, and it will continue to accumulate as a debt until he pays it.
In the state of Oklahoma if a noncustodial parent gives up all parental rights to her child does she still have to pay child support or can it be dropped?
Courts usually only allows parent to give up parental rights if the child is being adopted. But if they would allow her, it would be for the custodial parent to decide whether they would need child support or not. If they need support from the state the state will go after the mother first.
Can primary parent get child support from disabled parent on welfare?
The non-custodial parent will still owe child support, even if he or she is disabled and on welfare. However, most states will not garnish needs-based assistance such as disability or welfare payments. So if the parent is not working and does not pay his or her court-ordered child support, it would be difficult for the state to collect. He or she might still be arrested and jailed for failure to pay.
If my child is 20 years old and lives on a college campus can the child support go straight to him instead of the mother?
First of all, court ordered child support is paid until a child reaches the age of 18 so it would go to the custodial parent who is caring for the child If this is back child support from before the child turned 18, it would still go to the custodial parent who is on the court order. You would still owe any unpaid balances to the custodial parent.Obviously, the parent supported the child until the age of 18 and is entitled the money she should have been receiving for child support. If you are volunteering the support to help the child with college, then you can give it to the child yourself.
Can one parent keep you from seeing the other parent who is not paying child support?
No, it is not the child's fault, they still need the bonding effects of both parents. The other parent although not paying support is still subject to pay other bills until you can get them to court, which would also clear up the issue of keeping the child from the other.
Do you still pay child support on child who become s pregnant?
I am not an attorney or legal specialist. But If you are receiving child support at 20 are you receiving back child support owed from years that the parent skipped while you were a child? If you are receiving back child support then I would think not. If you are still receiving child support on your self at 20 and are pregnant , I would think that it would stop. Being pregnant is an adult action. I am not sure what state you live in but I would check the Divorce decree of your parents .AnswerIf you (or actually, I guess your parent) still receive child support at 20, then I imagine it's because you're still in school. If that's the case, and you remain in school and do not become 'emancipated' (for example through marriage), then I don't think a pregnancy would have any effect on the child support order. Check with a local attorney.

Does a non custodial parent still have to pay child support when the custodial parent is in jail?
Yes, unless the non-custodial parent gets custody. In that case the non-custodial parent must file a motion to terminate the child support order. The child support should be paid to whoever has custody of the child. If it's not the non-custodial parent then the child support order should be modified to reflect the party that should receive the child support payments. You have to pay for your child so you have to pay to the one who has custody while the other parent is in prison. If the state has custody you will pay the state.
