This research is empirical legal research, with data collection through literature study and interviews with respondents who are the custodians of the child. To analyze the research results, a statutory regulation approach and a sociological approach are used based on what actually happens in people's lives. The results of this study show that the implementation of fulfilling child support after parental divorce in Klaten Regency has not been fully implemented well. This is caused by the family's economic factors and this factor is the cause of a large number of divorces. In fact, in terms of providing maintenance, it is the father's responsibility, even after a divorce, because this has been stated in the Court Decision and must be implemented; and if the Court Decision is not implemented, then efforts can be made in the form of submitting a request for implementation of the decision to the Religious Court and providing a warning letter to the party who does not implement it. This research provides suggestions, namely the need to disseminate information to the public regarding the efforts made to fulfill their rights in Court Decisions, because there are still many people who do not know this, and this results in their rights not being fulfilled.
