If an 18-year-old decides to move out on her own in New do the parents have to pay child support to them until they are 21 in New York?

No, the legal age of majority (age when a minor becomes an adult) for the state is 18. Unless there is a court order in effect that states otherwise (applies when a child is physically or mentally impaired), parents are not legally required to support "adult" children unless they so choose.
