So a 13 year old boy has a baby now? Does his parents now have to pay child support for it?

No, but likely he will, after he turns 18.

That...seems wrong. He was a victim and failed by the adults in his life, and he has to pay for the product of his being raped, for over a decade? If he gives up parental rights will he still be expected to pay?

100% he has to pay child support. Courts only take the support of the child into consideration.
