FAQ
In Texas, child support does not cover medical or dental support. These are separate obligations. Usually, the parent paying child support also pays for the child's health insurance.
A parent can sign an “authorization agreement” form to give a nonparent the authority to care for and make decisions for a child. An authorization agreement lets a nonparent make decisions for a child without going to court.
