Yes, you must always adhere to the terms of the court order for child support regardless of the situation that arises.
If the obligated parent wishes to amend the terms of the order he or she must follow the required court procedure.
Never, ever arbitrarily cease paying child support when you are under the order of the court.

Will child support still have to be paid to your ex-wife while your child is in a residential treatment program?

Can child support be reduced if the custodial parent gets a job?
yes It's possible but unlikely because, in general, child support is based on the obligor's net income. In some countries like Australia, parental child support is based on a percentage of the non residential parent's net income. This amount is regardless of what the residential parent earns. The governmental child assistance amount changes according to the residential parent's income. (In the case of Aus, RESIDENCY means whichever parent had the child living with them at the time. CUSTODY means whichever parents has the responsibility for decisionson the child's life. Generally this means both parents unless neglect, violence etc is involved)

If they are an adult child (over 18) you really have no leverage to force them into treatment other than your parental persuasion. If they are an un-emancipated minor, commit them to a treatment facility or hospital. If you need assistance with finances or information, contact your local Dept. of Social Services for information.
