If you live in the US... Being pregnant/having a child does not emancipate a minor. Therefore, the minor's parents are still responsible for supporting them (but not for supporting the minor's child), and the child support must still be paid.

If a pregnant 16-year-old wants to live with the non-custodial parent will the custodial parent have to pay child support?
The minor female could not arbitrarily change residences without the permission of the custodial parent or the court.

The parent paying child support is legally obligated to continue with the terms of the court order until said order is rescinded or amended.
