Re: need a little help?
In my experience, unless there is another man who wants to adopt, very few Judges would allow such a thing. Child support is the right of the child, not the mother. However, if you wish to do it, although it will not stop her from seeking support in the future, or you from seeking visitation in the future, it will at least end her attempts to get support now, and she cannot seek past support until a court has ordered support paid. If the court has already ordered you to pay support, then only the court can change that.
