Generally child support terminates when the child attains the age of majority. Emancipation is a process by which a minor can become an adult. Joining the military is one way of getting emancipated. Once a child is emancipated, the parents are not required to support them. The paying parent can apply in court to terminate the child support.

Only as a deduction from the pay of the military member, up to 55% of the gross. Child support orders put into place based on a private sector job, prior to call up to duty, may exceed the capability of the obligor parent to pay due to the reduction in income. In those cases, only Missouri and Illinois have laws to address this problem for military members. All others go into arrears.

A child who enters the military will likely be considered "emancipated" and, in such a case, the courts would terminate support.
