    In Cuba if your family disowns you after coming out, you can sue them for child support.

    In the USA, states can arbitrarily decide to suspend the benefits of joint filing for same-sex couples, to talk nothing of the blitz of transphobic state legislation.

Child support only stops when the parents’ rights are terminated by the state or when someone adopts the child.

      As for the transphobic legislation, you’re right. Which is why I said “parts of the US”.
