The mother wants to put the child up for adoption, but the father objects to the idea and is granted legal and physical custody; does the mother have to pay to now pay child support to the father?

Generally, yes.
Both parents are financially obligated to the child -- whoever has primary physical custody usually has that counted toward their costs, so the non-custodial parent pays more in cash.

It sounds as though you've already made up your mind about this. I'll try to be as honest with you as I can. The polite answer: This all varies by state. Check the legalese of your state. In most cases, women get the decision about children. Personal opinion: As a woman, when men talk about their rights, they often imply I am just a babymaking machine. Many men didn't care about children's rights for centuries, and now suddenly they are very concerned because it hits them in the wallet. If we're going to turn babies into money (child support) I'd rather get NO child support than have some man have control over my life because he deigned to give me a few dollars once.

Well have the proof that she wanted adoption-tell the judge and get the child if able and willing to take good care of them or really let her put the child up the baby will get a good home-what a sorry B have a child and then not want it.

If the court orders child support, yes. If you hates the kid so much as to put it up for adoption, why not just terminate her parental rights. People do that here all the time. But if the other parents wants to screw them for support it may not happen.

She would have to give up all parental rights in order to not have to pay.

If she's working than YES
