First, without a court order, the mother cannot prohibit the father from seeing the child. If he has not voluntarily given up his rights to the child, and a judge has not created a custody schedule, the father has as much right to see the child as the mother.
Second, if the father does voluntarily give up his parenting rights, or a judge does involuntarily remove his parenting rights (or awards full custody to the mother), the father would still owe child support until his child reaches the age of majority and has graduated high school.
if the mother terminates her rights can he collect child support from the mother if child lives with him?
If you mean, what are the Dad's rights, he has the right to continue paying child support and the right to visitation, both as established by the courts.
You can sign your rights away but you will still have to pay child support if you are the father or mother of the child. There is no way to avoid paying child support.
No. If her parental rights have been revoked by the court she would not have custody of a minor child and therefore not eligible for funds to support that child. If child support were being paid before the mother's rights were terminated that support now belongs to the person(s) or agency having legalcustody of the child.

Child support would generally go to the person raising the child. Mother might even be ordered to pay to father.
The court will decide. Giving up your rights does not fulfill your obligations to support the child. Someone has to support the child, and you are the mother.
Yes the mother can be a minor and petition for child support. She has the same rights as an adult in that case. Or I should say the child has the same rights regardless of how old the parents are.
Child support is paid to support the child and follows the child; it is paid to the child's custodial parent, or to a guardian. So if the mother has lost her rights, she is no longer custodial and therefore may no longer have charge of the funds. Child support will still have to be paid though and this time also by the mother, to the one now taking care of the child. If the child is being adopted you pay until the adoption is finalized.
None of them can sign over anything. They can go to court and ask to have their rights removed and the custodial parent can ask to have the child support stopped but this means she can not get benefits before he has paid.
No, she forfeits her parental rights.
yes, unless/until the child is adopted
