It is my understanding that in many states, custody/visitation rights and child support is a whole different ballgame from termination of parental rights. Custody/visitation/support is always always always revisitable (though nothing may change if circumstances haven't changed). Termination of parental rights is a one-time, permanent thing, and once that's done, the (now former) parent does not have support obligations.
But it's not my area.
ETA obviously, sister is not all that poor or the public assistance people would be all over enforcing the support arrears.

NO, my sister is not all that poor (don't think pro bono) but with a husband overseas in Iraq and three children in day care and salaries well below those of what we attorneys make, she has a lot of trouble making ends meet. I feel bad for her on this one.

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.
