Contact the branch legal office. Have you asked him why.
The father has to have the court's consent to cease paying child support.
Paying child support will not cause the father to lose his parental rights - neither will not paying child support.
Yes, see link
That is dependent on state laws and whether he stopped paying due to be denied access to the children, which happens in 60% of the cases.
If you paid through the courts or the State - probably.
If you are the child's father then you really have little legal support to not support your child. Your child is legally entitled to your financial support.
A father cannot petition for emancipation, the child has to. And it doesn't relieve him of paying back support payments.

No.
If he has a visitation order, yes.
