I believe a child is legally emanicipated after graduation. usually the child is around 17 or 18 years old. it is then considered grown. i think children who are in difficult families should be able to emanicipate themselves at 17 anyway.

On their 18th birthday
no

As long as the child is under the age of 18, the parents can be held liable. In some cases the parents can be relieved of the responsibility if there are indications that they have been trying to get them help.

In New York, a parent's legal responsibility for a child typically ends when the child turns 21 or when the child becomes legally emancipated before that age. It can also end if the child gets married, joins the military, or is declared legally emancipated by a court.
