by law when your child turns 18, the parents lose guardianship of that child, or other young adults who are 18.

Another View: The age of 18 MAY depend on what state or country this takes place in. ALSO - if you are the appointed guardian of inherited funds or property, IN THAT REGARD ALONE, your guardianship may continue until the inheritance age specified in the deceased's will. Of course if you have guardianship due to medical, mental, or physical limitations (i.e.: the individual is not able to act competently on their own beahlf) this will not change.

In most states the legal age of majority is 18. Once the "child" reaches that age he or she is considered an adult and is no longer legally under parental authority. A few US states have higher ages of majority but even courts in those states are reluctant to enforce the applicable laws when the child reaches 18, except in child support matters. One other exception would be if the child in question is physically and or mentally challenged.

I think it does because the child has learned everything to take care of themself but mostly it depends on the parent
