In Texas, mothers pay child support all the time when the fathers are the custodial parents.

"Yes. It's his kid, too. If he does challenge it, he should, of course, be willing to accept raising it alone and paying for it all himself (bold mine). If the father is willing to do this, I don't really see how he can be denied." http://boards.cannabis.com/womens-is...ml#post1956990
