Yes, up to the age of 18 (at which point the child is deemed an adult). Child support is a different issue than legitimation. I STRONGLY recommend that you consult with a family law attorney about the benefits and burdens of legitimation. Best of luck.

Yes (up tp age 18 for sure, and possibly beyond). Child support is a separate issue.
