Form 8832. My child out of wedlock, and does not spend anytime at my home but I'm providing financial support. do i need to claim him? and file this form?

In addition, I provide health, dental insurance, college fund, school lunch, and provide weekly finances and food the mother asks for. Because, Im married my son has never stayed with me since birth. I don't have a court order for support, only a mediation to which both parents verbally agreed on. But, I am paying for school supplies , clothes, everything.  Why is it I cannot claim him in taxes even 6 months. This is not right.
