Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana

I have 3 children age 9,15, and 17. They have lived with me in indiana with no support form their father, and no welfare support. Recently they have decided after a short visit they would like to live with their father to get to know him in California. My question is if they do stay with him is there a way to make him financially responsible just as I have been by myself all these years? And if he signs up for welfare would I be responsible to pay it back?

if he signs up for welfare would I be responsible to pay it back? To pay back part of the benefits the children received...yes.
