Re: Child Support
A parent is generally relieved from paying child
support when the child reaches the age of 18. The
exception to this would be if the child turns 18
and is still in high school. If the child is
still in high school when the he/she reaches the
age of 18, the child support obligation may be
extended until the child graduates from high
school.
