Child support in MS is until 21 or until emancipated. Child has graduated from school, taken an apartment and job in other state, how do I go about terminating the child support? Can I do this myself with forms?

To my knowledge there are no "forms" so to speak. Each case is different and each case must be proved on its own merit. If the child is self supporting, you shouldn't have a problem and it shouldn't be too expensive to hire counsel for this matter.
Let me know if I can be of additional service to you regarding this or other matters.
