Not owned like a television set. But parents are responsible for raising their children, keeping them safe, secure, happy and contented. So it more of a moral responsibility that ownership.

Does child support have to be paid if the child lives with neither parent but lives in a house owned by one parent?

Someone must have custody of a minor even if they do allow them to stay in another building owned by them. The parent with the custody get the child support to use for the child's expenses until they are 18 (in some states longer). If the "child" is 18 or over you have to check your child support agreement when you were supposed to stop and then apply in court to have it stopped. Child support does not stop until the child is emancipated either by age or the courts so they can care for themselves. Up until that moment it's paid to the parent and not the child directly.

No. The purpose of child support is to help pay the day to day costs of caring for a child. It can be used at the discretion of the custodial parent for rent, mortgage, utility bills, auto expenses, food, clothing, medical expenses, entertainment, educational needs, etc. You cannot pay it over to a child because it is a right owned by the custodial parent and the funds are the property of the custodial parent.

A spouse who is not the biological or adopter parent of a child is not responsible for child support. However, if the non obligated spouse shares a bank account or other jointly owned property with the obligated parent he or she can be financially affected. If the situation is in regard to child support being amended because a parent has remarried and his or her financial situation has greatly increased, the court might take that into account regarding the amount the obligated parent is paying.
