Not retrospective in nature. If did not ask maintenance in past cannot claim.now. can claim.from today for kids who did not turn 18 yet.

DV act is   a temporqry measure.Alimony could  cover your wife and also your kids. It could   be monthly or  in lump sum.. You neeed to pay alimony to your wife u/s 25 of HMA  which covers  the  kids also. If you appreciate this  answer please convey my forum  thanks.

Child cannot file the case . Wife can move to court ( in case she has no source of income) under sec 125  crpc but for future maintenaince and not of past.

No child cannot file any dv case on their father on these above basis.

Instead of using criminal mind to extort money from husband. Y don't u, 1. Earn money by doing job? 2. Ask husband nicely, he may give his life for u. But for that you should have good track record of being extra sweet to ur husband. It will definitely work.
