Go through the proper channels to change this, don't just stop paying, but in theory child support is paid to the parent with legal, physical custody to help in the cost of raising the child so if you have legal, physical custody of your two children their mother should technically be paying you but be aware that she may challenge you for spousal support instead.

Yes if the other children werent taken into consideration during the time of the order. But keep in mind that the youngest child whether in your care or the other parent will receive the highest % of support from your earnings.


If a noncustodial father has two children with the same woman does he have to pay child support on both children until the youngest one is 18?

Each case is treated separately so the first child will no longer receive child support when he/she turns 18 as with the younger child.


If the custodial parent two children give one of the children back to the father does the father still have to pay child support for the one child that stayed with the mother or are they even?

No, the father has to pay child support for both children. Of course the child that decides to live with him will be treated as he/she were when you were both married, but the child you have will still continue to receive child support by law!

Do I have to pay child support in Kentucky if my child is in college and 18?

If there is no child support owed that is in arrears, for Kentucky child support orders, the child support order ends when the child turns 18, unless he or she is still enrolled in high school, in which case child support would continue through the school year in which the child turns 19. Under certain circumstances, child support may continue past the child turning 18 (or 19 if still in high school) if ordered by the court. If the support order is for more than one child, the support obligation will not automatically end when one of the children reaches 18 (or 19 if still in high school) unless that child is the youngest child or the child support order listed a separate amount of child support for each child. If neither of these conditions exists, a request for a review of the child support obligation must be submitted before any change in the obligation amount can be made. If child support is in arrears, it will continue until the past due amount is completely satisfied.
