If the mother agrees, the child can move in with you. The moment she turns 18, the custody order ends since she is considered an adult. But if she has not graduated from high school then your child support would continue until she graduates or drops out of high school.

If you want more details, you need to talk to an attorney in the county where the jurisdiction is - look on this website & on www.avvo.com for an attorney.
