What age do you think a child should stop recieving child support?
Scooby Doo asked:
If the child is in college and doing well, the non-custodial parents should have to help the child while in school. I mean the custodial parent is always helping the student correct?
The reason I asked this question is because I am a college student who is getting child support from my somewhat of a father and yes I am 20years old and I am in school and I do have 2 jobs, but school is high and my mother helps out, but my somewhat of a father pays child support, but it will stop on my 21st birthday. I don’t think that it is fair since my mother has been supporting and helping me for the last 20 years and my father has been helping here and there when he has the money to always help. I respect fathers and mothers who take care of their kids but I feel and know that college is when money is really needed and everyone cannot just make enough on their own to take care of themselves and for those who do, I respect you and admire you.
