Yes, most of the time, but sometimes there isn't as much money in the child support to cover it
Actually, the intent of the law is such:
If both parents made the same amount of money neither would not pay child support. In that case each would be responsible for all support costs when they are with them: food, housing, medical, clothing, everything. There would be no sharing of any costs.
Since there is a disparity in the incomes the child support gives the receiver, money to provide for the children to the same extent as the payer during their time of care. What this does is maintain the level of living for the children when with both parents. If child support was meant to pay for all of one parent's financial obligations for that child, then the person receiving the child support would have to pay all of the medical cost, all of the clothing, all of the food, all of the housing expenses for both homes for the child. The person paying would pay for nothing even when the child was with them. It is a means of evening out the disparity and maintaining an even level of care for the minor children.
NOT to absolve either of paying for care during their time with the children.

That depends on the child support order that is in place right now, the state laws in your jurisdiction and the court with jurisdiction. If they don't originally cover college expenses child support orders can sometimes be modified to cover a child who stays in school. In any case, the issue must be addressed by your court and your mother will need to seek any modification of the support order, if necessary. She can inquire at the court or consult with an attorney who can review the situation and explain the options.That depends on the child support order that is in place right now, the state laws in your jurisdiction and the court with jurisdiction.
