What else can I help you with?
Do the father still have to pay child support if the mother is mentally ill?
Why not? It's still your child. Who has the child the father with mental problems or the custodial parent? Still if the father has mental problem and he fathered a child...yes he does have to pay child support. Was the father with mental problems receiving some type of disability for his mental problems? If so he is still responsible for paying child support. Does the father have custody of the child? Somebody needs to go back to court ad petition the court.
Would A father with a child over 18 living in Mississippi have to pay child support if she is not in school and she works a job?
Only if there was child support owed from before the child was 18. You are confusing child support with a deceased terminally ill parent's social security benefits given to their children after the death of the parent until the child graduates college. Child support only gets paid up unitl 18 years of age, unless there is money past due.

If illegal immigrant mother leaves country and father gives up all rights does he still have to pay child support?
Every state has different laws about this type of situation. In most states if the father does not pay any child support at all and has had no communication with the child for over 6 months, it is considered child abandonment and their rights can be taken away from them.
If a child has mentally ill father can it effect their mental wellbeing?
Yes. A child who believes his father is mentally ill will be affected. The question is in what way and how much. The "fact" that his father is mentally ill will "weigh" on the child. If the child cares about his father, it will bother him that his dad is ill, that he cannot help his dad, and it may even occur to the child that he (the child) is in some way responsible. The best "defense" is to talk about the situation a bit. Open it up. The age of the child will predicate the type of approach, as will the nature and severity of the mental illness of his father. (It is imperative that you be clear on what is going on with the father. Crystal clear.) It would be a good idea to get one of the counselling types on board for this one so you can proceed correctly and in an age-appropriate manner. Professional consultation costs money, but an initial consult is usually free or inexpensive. Do a couple of initial consults and see what things look like. Best of luck sorting this one out.

Could a father get custody of his child if there is a history of mental illness in his family?
Yes. The custody of a child is determined by the best interest of the child. If the court determines that the father is better for the child, he can get custody. Mental illness in his family would probably not even be relevant unless he has mental illness, or if a mentally ill relative lived with him.
Does a terminally ill non custodial parent still have to pay child support?
Only a judge can decide this, and it only applies if the child is in continuing education.
Does a non custodial parent pay child support if they are mentally unable to work?
That is for the court to decide based on what evidence he has that he is too ill to work.
You father is ill and you are in jail can your step sibling make a decision about your father's medical care?
No. A step child has no legal right to make medical decisions for your father unless they were granted that power by your father under a power of attorney or health proxy document or by a court order.
