    You would have to go to court and have the support reversal done through them. You would also have to get legal custody of the child in order to enroll them in school and get them medical attention should they need it. The father would have to have the child put on his work insurance.

    The Mother needs to get paperwork approved for a change of custody and negating Child Support. Don't take her word for it or you may find yourself in a bad legal problem. Until the Child Support and custody are entered through the court, all past legal actions are still binding. She would also be able to just "pop up" and take the child whenever she wanted to. State Medicaid is offered depending on income. He would need to apply for it through NY.

    You have to go to courts and file a petition to stop the child support she the mom will keep getting it until the FATHER proves otherwise, show that you have the child and most likely take her with you and provide school records and such. But if he was in arrears ( behind) in Child support she will continue to get it until it is caught up. There is nothing temporary about support, it all has to go in front of a Judge, and it is final until it goes back in front of a Judge. The mom & dad should go or call each welfare office and tell hem because the state pays a certain amount of money to the mother and keeps some in some states medicaid is based on your income and in TX I never got it for my child and I was a single parent with a x husband as a dead beat dad. I worked my butt off to support my child and tried to make sure she had a life. things need to be settled between the parents and if the young man needs outside help[ with medicaid in TX they do have a very good boot camp and services for children with behavioral problems BUT the parent has to be in on it and make sure the child is not just running the streets. I lived in Grapevine TX I about beat my daughter when e pulled sneaking out while I was asleep. I heard I'm calling the CPS well I took her to the Police station and i stayed on her a** and they did to and then she tried more thing s then Moved her out in the country and drove an hour to work and One hour home, her friend she was getting into trouble with came over as I was moving and I heard her say "your mom is crazy" . I looked at the trash and I said you D**** right I am and you need to get out of my house now ! She left in a hurry and my friends helped me pack up the rest of our things and out to the sticks I went and I was singing " moving to the country and going to eat a lot of peaches". It saved my child and she is now grown out of High School and College. She still tried to be a rebel but I was determined not to let her go through the legal system. I was the legal system and she knows to this day I do not play at all. Life is to short to let a child run around with no direction and it makes me angry to see it everyday. Excuses "I have to work" so did I but I made time for my child and I made sure I knew what was going on and if something was wrong I would not stop until I got to the bottom of it. No matter what it takes they are OUR the mother and fathers responsibility and they did not ask to be brought in to this world and thrown down and expected to behave and not have attention or direction in life. My mother kept up with 5 my father was a truck driver and we knew it when we messed up sometimes when we did not. But they taught me respect, responsibility, loyalty, honesty, never give up. There was no love felt and that was very hard because I'm a very caring person and I never have known how to love because I have not learned to love myself. I hope my very own children felt love it not I only did what I thought was best, I'm a hard core person when you are messing up but you try to live the honest way and we get along otherwise, I usually tell you if your mine or kin to me. Good Luck work with the child it sounds like your the step mother and I hope you treat him well because he is going to give you a hard time.

    Source(s): Mother of two, and I was a step mom to three more and I still love and miss them to this day. and it has been 13 years since our divorce but those now grown children are still in my heart.

    The court must be informed of the change of custody and it must have an approval.
