Best Answer

The non custodial parent who is paying child support is legally bound to the terms of the support order until the terms are changed or the support is ended by the court. You could consult an attorney about getting the amount reduced making a request can be made to be relieved of the financial responsibility.

Does a parent have to pay child support to an 18-year-old trying to get a GED instead of a high school diploma?

It depends upon the wording in the support order. Generally an order states until the child reaches the state age of majority and finishes high school. It is doubtful that the court would suspend support if the minor is making a good faith attempt at getting his/her GED, however, the time limit would have to be sen as reasonable. These basics do not apply if the child is considered disabled in some capacity. The safest option is to continue support payments, and if so inlclined, petition the court for a hearing to possibly modify the order.


How often can they take you back for more childsupport?

Until the child reaches age 18. However, if the person that is required to make child support payments is behind in payments, child support will continue beyond age 18 until the full amount has been satisfied. This is computed based upon the monthly amount ordered by the court times the months remaining until the child attains the age of 18.
