No, it doesn't; you have to file to terminate it. In my case, my son turned 18 while he was still in high school.

Even after graduation, child support payments continued until I filed proof with the court that he had graduated.

If there was an order at some time your mother may be able to sue for arrears but that seems not to be the case.
