In the Philippines, you can pursue child support against your son's seafarer father by filing a case for support, even if he is not communicating with you. While the failure to pay child support isn't a criminal offense, Republic Act 9262 (Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act) provides for penalties in certain cases, and you can petition the court to increase the support amount if the current payments are insufficient. You may need to consult with a lawyer to help you with the legal process of demanding child support. We can help you
