I assume you mean "ex" husband. That would assume what you had written in your divorce decree. Get it out and read it. Is this child still in high school? I would think at least through high school --- but check your papers and talk to your lawyer. If it isn't written down....you may be SOL

In most cases, child support obligations typically end when the child reaches the age of majority (usually 18). However, this may vary depending on the specific laws and regulations in your jurisdiction. It is advisable to consult with a family law attorney to determine the specific requirements in your situation.
