Visitation rights and payment of child support have nothing to do with each other. One is not dependent on the other. Why would you want to take away a father's rights anyhow? At some point in the child's life, the child may want to know his father.

Certainly. A judge can terminate visitation and order the parent to continue paying support. One really does not affect the other.

Yes, he has to pay for their welfare until they are legal adults, regardless if he sees them or not. Or, as in my ex-husband's case, he perminantly terminates all of his parental rights to the child.
