More details to this question:
My ex-boyfriend and I have called it quits, found out he has been missing with girl that was underage. He is the father of my son but is not on the birth certificate. He did not live with me, but stays the night to help me out sometimes because I have problems walking and moving stuff around. He used to help my family pay bills.

First, he must acknowledge his paternity of the child, or you must receive a court determination that he is the father of the child. Then, you can seek an order that he pay child support.
