Re: Child support
Only if you have an agreement with the mother incorporated into your divorce decree to continue supporting your daughter until she attains a four year degree or age 22 whichever occurs first.
In the absence of such an agreement, under current Virginia law, your obligation to support your daughter(based upon the facts you've provided) would appear to terminate effective June 1, 2008.
