No. Emancipated children have no legal ties to their parents.

Yes if it had been previously court ordered. A new order replaces the old order at the time it is entered but does not 'erase' the responsibilities you had to the old order.

Social Security is income for purposes of determining amount of child support.

Only if his name is on the birth certificate and he doesn't contest it. If he askes for a DNA test or can prove it isn't his, No.

Parental rights and parental duties are not the same thing. If you terminate your parental rights you may no longer visit the child or contact him. However, in many states, including Oklahoma, you may still have an obligation to pay support. This can vary by individual circumstances, so it's best to check with and attorney.

Going into a child support case is a delicate matter. Going into it with the mind set of "winning" is generally not encouraged. The only person who must be considered as the 'winner' must be the child. No matter how much custudy you retain it is always important to keep in mind the emotional health of your child, it is extremely important that the child feel free to love both parents and not feel pressure from any parent to harbor negative feelings towards the other. As this can prove to be not only very confusing for a child, but if parents cannot work together, despite their not being involved with each other any longer, the child may use the discord in their relationships to their advantage when in adolescence to gain things such as material or otherwise. there is nothing worse to a parent when a child can manipulate with such a thing. Although you and your ex may have a bad history and hurt feelings are always hard to put aside it is very important to remember that this child was not made on its own but with two partents, who have equal rights in raising the child and watching the child grow up. It is thus very important for the two parents as difficult as it may be to put aside any negative feelings toward each other and remain a strong parental unit, it can be done! This will establish not only stability in the child's life, but help the child retain his or her family even if the two parents are separated. If however your ex is an unfit parent and you can provide proof to it that is wholly another matter. My advice is to go into your case thinking of your child first and the importance of a child having two parents in his or her life whether or not they are still together. And always remember never ever argue with each other in front of your child as hard as it may be, arguments may always be settled later, but the emotional hurt a child is exposed to during such an event is very hard to correct. As a parent who has gone through this myself and as a councilor that is the best advice I can give. Good luck in your case. =M.K.

Only if the child has reached the age of majority in accordance with the state laws. See link

Otherwise, retain the garnishment, which is suppose to be on all obligoes by federal law, as it's better for dealing with false claims of non-support.

There are many reasons not to have a child at such a young age. Physically, a girl/woman's body isn't fully developed at 15 so if there is a pregnancy problems may result from carrying a baby at such a young age. The ecomomic factors are also against such a young mother. She often quits school to have the baby and this may lead to a lifetime of poverty and under education of which she may never get out of unless she returns to school. More young single mothers are at poverty level than any other group in the United States.

Yes. You are a minor who has already demonstrated some rather poor decision-making skills. It seems obvious to most rational people that it wouldn't make sense to allow you to do the same thing again. you and your baby's father were irresponsible, don't expect to be treated as though you are an adult. It's unfortunate that your mother trusted you in the first place. If there had been a little more control, perhaps you wouldn't be a mother at 16. I'm sure you were very convincing when you told your mother how responsible you are. I'm also sure you let her know that she was unreasonable when she tried to restrict your activities. Did you say something like "None of my friends parents do that"? Did you send her on a guilt trip? Don't be surprised that she isn't buying any of it now. ---- If you are still living in your Mom's house, yes. Your Mom has the right to determine who enters her house and who doesn't. But, the good news is (in Illinois) when a minor has a baby she is legally considered an adult. Long story short, you have rights! You have the rights to: live on your own; to work to pay your bills; to choose which brands of formula, diapers, clothing, and furniture you buy for your baby; to provide health insurance for you and your baby; to get your GED so you might actually have a future. If, however, you opt to forgo your rights, you are to obey the rules of your Mom's household. After all, whomsoever has the gold makes the rules.

By showing attention to the feet of another person.

There is a lateral saying of "Worshipping someone at the feet - which implies that they will literally do anything for you"

Then there is the fetish side, which is an intimate interest of a persons' body. It just depends what route you are thinking of taking as to how you show interest.

Yes, there's no statute of limitations

Get a subpoena.

Most likely. Just about every state will intercept federal and state income tax refunds for child support arrears.

Eventually they may. I hope you intend on making those payments.

no, you give up your claim for support by filing for Welfare. That is why most tell the father to just pay them cash, than tell welfare that they don't know where the father is, or who. When ush comes to shove, the father is the one punished, not her.

You can't, but your state's child support agency can.

yes, if the child is no longer eligible for the benefit
