No. That is not up to the child. If child support payments are in arrears, it means that the custodial parent was not receiving the child support as provided in the child support order issued by the court and the non-custodial parent was in contempt of a court order. The arrears are also set forth in a court order. The funds are owed to the custodial parent. Therefore, the debt cannot be "forgiven" by the child even if they are an adult.

This is hard to answer because there can be many variables involved. The noncustodial parent may contest the move and take the custodial parent to court to show cause. But it may not be possible for the noncustodial parent to actually prevent the move unless the move is out of state.
