He is entitled to support. You deciding not to ask for support back when you had the child doesn't mean the child shouldn't receive financial help from its mother now.
While I agree with my colleague that you do need to support your child, it may be possible to seek retroactive support for the years you cared for your child. You should discuss the details of your case with an attorney. Feel free to contact my firm via the link below or at [email protected] if you have any questions.
