Parental responsiblity for 18 year old not living at home

What legal responsiblities and liabilities do we, as parents, have for our 18 year old child who left home of his own free will? Can we be sued and/or held legally responsible for his actions while he is not living with us? He is still in high school and does not have access to any of our vehicles. Thank you.
