Two consequences are probable. First, the 21 year old male will be on the hook for child support. Secondly, he could very well be prosecuted for statutory rape.
A father cannot petition for emancipation, the child has to. And it doesn't relieve him of paying back support payments.
That's up to the judge.see link
Yes. You need to contact an attorney immediately. Your husband needs to support you while you are pregnant and will have to pay child support for the child until at least age eighteen.
Yes.
Nope. She was responsible for the child who got pregnant. She cannot deny her responsibility for the child's actions.
The choice is yours not his. If you choose to have it he has a choice to be a dad to his child or not. Either way he still has to pay child support. If you are not sure he is the dad you can take a DNA test after the child is born.
yes...there is no law against refusing child support.
If the court has awarded child support, then the good intentions of the father are irrelevant. Legally, child support must be paid.
You pay the support. She didn't have that child by herself.
I don't think they give child support for an adult. If your parents wants to support you great, but at 21 it is not a must.
So what?
"Signing away one's rights" is a myth. The only way this can actually happen is if the mother and her new spouse actually adopt the child.
