The age of consent in NY is 17, if your daughter is on your medical insurance and is living in your home or considered your dependent on your taxes I would think you would have a tough time getting around paying. But if she is not in school, not your dependent on your taxes, not living in your house, legally you would probably not be responsible.

It sounds like there is some tension there between you and your daughter. Please remember this too will pass. Don't make any decisions in anger that you will regret later. That is your grand child she is pregnant with.
