Re: past due child support
Child support is typically owed to and paid to the custodial parent, for the child's benefit. As such, the parent will typically need to be the one bringing the action and not the child.
I am not aware of any "statute of limitations" for child abuse. You can report any such allegations to law enforcement and/or to the Dept. of Social Services.
If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
