If there is someone who has custody of a child and can no longer care for the child, they need to give the child to another family member. The local DHS office can help find family members to take care of the child.
No, if the mother voluntarily gives cutody to someone else, she can no longer be paid child support because she no longer has custody of the child. What happens now is the father can obtain custody because he does have rights or the person who has custody and have legal guardianship can file for assistance in which child support can be included or filed.
Yes, if the parents do not "keep" their child with them that implies they leave the child with someone else. That someone else could petition the court for a legal guardianship and gain legal custody of the child. That would be in the best interest of the child and the person with whom the child lives should have legal custody.Yes, if the parents do not "keep" their child with them that implies they leave the child with someone else.

No, you do not get child support for a child that is not in your custody. The point of child support is to help pay for the expenses that are involved in raising a child. If you are not actually raising a child, then you do not have those expenses and there is no need to help you pay for them.Another PerspectiveIf you are not the custodial parent by court order or legal guardian you are not entitled to collect child support. If you are raising someone else's child you should visit the local family court to determine how you can become the child's legal guardian. You should ask to speak with an advocate or if possible, you should arrange a consultation with an attorney who specializes in custody issues.
Who is in jail? If the child is in jail, they have custody. If the adult is in jail, they should never get custody. If the spouse is in jail they should not get custody. Jail would have no bearing on the time of custody, just who should be able to even see the child.
That's something that should be outlined in your custody order and if not, is dependent on the law where the child legally resides.

At 18, the person is no longer a child. He/she is now an adult not a child. No custody order can be enforced on an adult.
He can request it but the mother should raise an aggressive objection. There is no reason for the child to be away from their mother and in the care of someone other than their other parent just so the father can establish 50% custody to minimize child support payments. The mother should consult with an attorney who specializes in custody issues. It will be a good investment in the future.He can request it but the mother should raise an aggressive objection.

Yes
I think that an immigrant has the right to get custody of his or her child just like an American citizen.As long as they are fit and respondsible parents.
You, because you are the mother of the child. Unless you got the baby taken away form you and someone else has custody of him/her.
