Oxford, OH asked in Child Support for Ohio

Q: My son isn't living with his mother or me, he is living with his grandmother. Should I still be paying child support?

It's his mom that has me on child support and she doesn't have my son any more he is staying with his grandmother and she claims he doesn't want to stay with me. There isn't any court order giving custody to anybody...all I know is I'm current on my support and I don't see or have my son and neither does she so where is my money going if she is the one I pay the support to...?

A: You are certainly still responsible for support, but it should probably be going to grandma at this point. You may want to file a motion to modify the support order.
