The non-custodial parent pays child support. The amount would depend on the provisions of the divorce decree, separation agreement, child support order and state laws. If the parents are not married, the father's paternity must be established in court and the court will issue a child support order.

Every state has child support guidelines based on such factors as income of the parties, age of the child, which parent provides health insurance and whether the child receives any government support.

If you are married can you stop child support?

Being married does not automatically stop child support. Child support is a legal obligation that exists to ensure the well-being of the child. It is determined based on factors such as custody arrangements, the income of both parents, and the needs of the child. Marriage alone does not release a parent from their financial responsibility towards their child.
