I have been paying support for 21 years the last 16 of which I have not had visitation due to the mother keeping a very busy schedule for the child. I was laid off from work for a time and am now in an arrears situation do I have any recourse because I was not even permitted to speak the the child on the phone because her calls were screened by a very bitter ex wife? The ex wife by the way did offer at one point to stop the support order if I gave up all rights to the child so her new husband could adopt her. Is there anything legally fishy about that?
