I am 19 yrs old and my mother is still collecting child support from my father. when i was 14yrs old my mom had a nervous breakdown and sent me to live with another family. she never sent money cards gifts or anything. NOW i have graduated and moved on w/out her but she has affected so many aspects of my life . this is where the c.s. comes in my father refuses to talk to me because he feels that i should take my mom to court and ask the judge to send me the child supprt money instead of sending it to her.

Your father is the one who should be taking your mom to court, not you. If you still need support, such as attending school or college, your father should get a court order to re-direct the child support to whoever is supporting you right now. Your father is acting like a child by not speaking to you. It is his responsibility to make sure you are receiving the proper support, not the child. And your mother is greedy and must not care about whether or not you are being taken care of financially. Tell your dad to get off his butt and be a father.

Child support ends when the child leaves school or reaches 19 in most states. If you continue to go to college, you collect the support. Don't know if he's continuing to pay back support to her but that would go to the county if she was collecting welfare.
Contact the D.A. in your county and ask this question. Forget about your parents, you have real good company in the millions of children who were born to ineffective and/or uncaring parents. The pattern of neglect does not follow you in life if you learn from what you know.

If you are 19, it is most likely BACK support.
He might just now be paying what he should have 5 years ago when she might have been supporting you.
To many kids have no idea how much food, clothes, medical, gas, utilities, insurance, etc. costs.
They mistakenly think that the person paying is paying to much and the parent receiving is getting rich.
This is normally not the case.
But it is hard to judge your specific case without more details.
Good Luck!

You are 19 and independent. Child support ends when the child has become independent, that is working and out of school. You are still entitled in most cases to support if you are in college, but, if you are 19 and have "moved on", move on.

By all means contact your fathers enforcement officer let him/her know what is happening provide an address and your current bills and have it sent to him/her...more in likely your mother is either going to have to pay u back or your father or the courts...but if she is not providing what so ever report it to you local domestic relations office. It would be a plus if you had it notarized stating that you are not receiving it or any help and it says your telling the truth

Normally, once you turn 18, child support payments stop. Unless there is a stipulation that your father pays if you continue on to college. You could contact an attorney and see if you have a case, but I don't think you will have much to stand on. But I'd give it a shot and see what happens.
Good Luck!

Although I don't know reason for the separation of your parents leading to such painful life to their child, but, I understand that you a point against your mother and finally found that a father is also found to no less inhumane to you.
What I think is ...its time you leave them aside and stand on your own feet and let them do their way.
Well, if you want to take care of your ill mom you may do it all by yourself without depending on anyone else.
As a matter of Law imposition your dad also have a point. even you cannot deny that.

This is a question for the judge. Your father is wrong to put you in the middle of it. If he thinks the support order is unfair, he needs to petition the court for a review.
