My exwife left the state after our divorse. I could not find them for 10 years. My daughter found ME then I paid child support, for the last 3 years. She is now 18 yrs old and my ex wants to collect for BACK support. Can she do this? If so, how should I handle this. I am married with 5 other children.My exwife only has our daughter,who is now away to college. I plan to help pay for college, and I gave her a car that I keep insured and registered for our daughter .
