Stripping a father from his right to see or visit his child due to inadequate or no child support

This is fairly common in many situations we’ve encountered at our law offices, to find mothers keeping the child from the father due to no, or inadequate child maintenance. Because of this, the legal expert himself makes mention of this mistake. He states that: Child support is the right of the child. And every child should obtain adequate child support from both his or her parents. However, if a parent does not pay child support, that is no reason alone to refuse him contact. Or, should he pay more child support, he would receive more contact. Maybe there are legitimate reasons why he cannot pay child support or the amount the parent wants. Maybe what the mother is claiming is excessive etc. Be that as it may, if a parent does not pay child support, the maintenance court should be approached for assistance. Should a parent refuse the other parent contact to his or her child due to not paying child support, notwithstanding the non-paying parent having parental responsibilities and rights to have contact with that child, the refusing parent is clearly showing a disregard for the law and what is in the minor child’s best interests.

Can a father gain full Child Custody over a child?

According to the law, this is highly possible. Of course, this will depend upon a number of factors before the court decides what, or rather in whose care is the child most safe. However, let’s take a look at what our legal expert says about this: The terms used to refer to the rights and responsibilities of parents to their children are referred to as “parental responsibilities and rights”. Parental responsibilities and rights are defined in the Children’s Act. Section 18 of the Children’s Act of 38 2005 (the Children’s Act) states the following: 18. (1) A person may have either full or specific parental responsibilities and rights in respect of a child. (2) The parental responsibilities and rights that a person may have in respect of a child, include the responsibility and the right- (a) to care for the child; (b) to maintain contact with the child; (c) to act as guardian of the child; and (d) to contribute to the maintenance of the child.

Parental Rights in South Africa

The court can grant an order that can limit parental responsibilities and rights, depending on the nature or circumstance of the matter of course. However, when the court does make these changes, they will consider what’s in the child’s best interests. When terminating parental responsibilities and rights, the court will:
  • What is best for the child rather than parents
  • The relationship between the child and guardian
  • The dedication the guardian has shown to taking care of the child and
  • Other factors that may be relevant to the court.
