its not about how long it is its your reason if it were abondonment you would

have left it on purpose and if you do leave it on purpose then it takes about 1 or 2 years

but you would have to be doing it deliberetly.

Added: In regards to child support issues there is no such thing as 'abandonment." As the legal parent you have a legal obligation to support the child until the statutopry time-limit set by law for your particular state. You will not escape responsibility for paying child support by declaring that you "abandoned" the child.
