Get the court's approval for this first.
no because then ho are u going to spend time with your child unless you have a husband or wife
This is an issue which should have been addressed in the original support agreement. If there is no stipulation as to how support should be administered when the children are with you. You are still obligated. You can however, have the order modified to read, that when you have physical custody the set payments at that particular time be used for the children's benefit.
Generally, in a divorce when one parent is awarded the custody of the children, the other parent is ordered to pay child support so the child can share in the standard of living of both parents. It is the amount of money the non custodial parent must pay to help meet the expenses associated with raising their child on a daily basis. When determining the amount of child support, the courts must consider the state child support guidelines, the parents' income and earning capacity and the amount of time the children spend with either parent. Child support must be paid until the child is 18 years of age. If the child is living with the receiving parent and is in high school, child support will end when the child completes 19 years of age or graduates whichever occurs first.
If both parents are agreeable to the situation, or the parent wishing the child to pay his or her grandparents a visit receives permission from the court that issued the custodial order.
Child support is paid to the custodial parent. Generally you have no control over it unless you have evidence the mother is neglecting the children. In that case you would need to try to gain custody yourself or have the court arrange some supervision. The problem of fathers who do not want to pay child support over to their ex-wives is extremely common. However, the custodial parent has the right to decide how to spend the child support in any way that benefits the children, within reason, without having to account to the child support obligor. It is not "spending money" for the child. Child support is provided for help in paying for the child's needs that can include anything that must be provided for the child including shoes and clothing, medical and dental expenses, school expenses, rent, recreational activities, heat and utilities and food.
YES BUT IT MIGHT GET A BIT BORING

In many jurisdictions, yup.
And International Law. You can file for custody, but only Cuba actively enforces foreign custody orders for fathers. You can file a motion to place child support on hold, but that means you put it into a trust fund, not spend it.
The state sets the rates for child support. If he has paid up and is not in arrears, then the money is his to spend.

i dont think so cause youre not abandoning him if u support him but its not nice to not want to see youre child
If the checks are coming to you, the money is yours to spend on the child's up keep.
Child support should go towards support of the child, such as: diapers, clothing, food, medicine, furniture, toys, entertainment and so on. Child support is simply a non-custodial parent's financial share of supporting a child that they would normally spend if they were still in the home. It is not a penalty. It is a responsibility.
No if they have lost custody it doesn't mater.
Most states place a cap on the amount of child care that can be reimbursed through child support. The custodial parent can spend whatever they like on child care, but child support will usually only consider up to a maximum amount. For example, your state may conclude that any amount over $800/month is unreasonable for child care. The custodial parent could still pay $1200/month on child care, but child support would only be calculated based on the maximum amount of $800. Not all states have such a cap. Your state's child support guidelines should list that amount, if there is one.
It's a chance to do something different with your summer and spend it in the US of A; living and working either with children as an activity leader/counselor or behind the scenes as support staff, on an American Summer Camp.
