Paying child support isn't really a matter of choice. Each parent is required to comply with the court order(s) in the case.

You have a child who is 18 years old has his GED and will be a father and a few weeks he is in NJ can you emancipated this child and ask the court for child support termination?
The fact that he has a GED and he's about to become a father are irrelevant, because neither of those qualifies a child for emancipation. But, turning 18 does. Why are you still paying child support if he's 18? Does the order state child support continues during college (you didn't say he's in college, but maybe he plans to start this fall)? If not, petition the court to have it terminated.
Can you take the father back to court to make him pay for college for 17 year old?
If the courts have ordered child support then no. The current custodial parent is responsible for the financials of the child. If the father is meeting the current court orders then he is exempt for paying any other than child support. If the court has ordered the child to live with both parents then an exception could be made by the courts. However, should the child start college after they turn 18 the father is no longer responsible for anything to do with the child.

Does child support start when you leave you child's father or when the friend of the court starts a case by application?
In California child support cannot start until the month AFTER it is requested. In other words you can't go back and ask for support if you left in December but didn't file asking for child support until May. The soonest it would start would be June 1 in that case. This may NOT be the law in your state.

What action do you take when you find out that you are the biological father?
If possible for your own interest go to YOUR local child support office and get as much information as you can. If you are financially able - begin paying something. First and foremost find out if the mother has had any assistance from the state - you will be held accountable for paying that money back. Begin being a part of the child's life - key word "CHILD'S" Best advice start at the child support agency they are more than likely going to be more than happy to help you until you have a court order requiring you to pay.
