Short answer. Yes. When a child is committed to an accredited children's home as a disciplinary measure, the parent exercising parental authority shall not interfere with the care of the child whenever committed but shall provide for his support — commitment does not suspend your duty to support your child.
What the law says
The parent exercising parental authority shall not interfere with the care of the child whenever committed but shall provide for his support
Family Code, Article 224 — Commitment of the Child as a Disciplinary Measure. Read the full provision →
What this kind of commitment actually is
The provision allows commitment as a disciplinary measure — placing the child for not more than thirty days in an entity, institution, or children's home engaged in child care and duly accredited by the proper government agency. It is a time-limited disciplinary tool, capped at thirty days, carried out in an accredited facility, rather than an open-ended arrangement that removes the child from your family indefinitely — the disciplinary purpose does not stretch the placement beyond what the rule itself expressly allows for.
Two duties run in opposite directions during commitment
The rule places two obligations on the parent at the same time, and they pull in different directions. You are told not to interfere with the care of the child while committed — leaving the accredited institution to actually manage day-to-day care — while separately and independently being told you shall provide for his support regardless. Non-interference in the day-to-day care does not translate into any break from your ongoing financial responsibility toward your own child.
Why support continues even though someone else provides day-to-day care
The obligation to support your child is treated as distinct from the question of who is physically caring for the child day to day. An accredited institution taking over supervision and discipline for up to thirty days does not, on its own, relieve the parent of the underlying duty to provide support — the two things are separated deliberately, side by side, within the very same sentence of the provision — both duties bind the parent, but neither cancels the other out.
The commitment is not necessarily permanent either
Beyond the built-in thirty-day cap, the court may also terminate the commitment earlier upon proper petition or at its own instance, whenever it genuinely finds doing so to be just and proper. Knowing that the commitment itself can end sooner, and is capped regardless, is useful context alongside understanding that your support obligation runs continuously throughout whatever period the child actually remains committed, and does not pause or reset simply because the commitment itself might end earlier than the full thirty days.
